i have a 1998 neon and i put an after market intake on it a while back and it always bugged me because the air filter was positioned right behind the motor and i figure its just sucking in warm/hot air and is not real effective. I don't see anything wrong with using the flex pipe to reposition the air filter right upfront bu the radiator so it can breath alot better. yeah its kind of ghetto but i think i will se the results and have a better ride.

as long as it filters the air going in i dont think it would hurt anything but you never know

Is the black cowl for air box missing? There is already a piece that goes over the engine to the front so you don't take air in off the hot exhaust. You could also install a cold air intake. I bet they don't cost much now that the car is 10 years old.

Won't hurt a thing except that the joints arent air tight so you could get some particles in there you don't want. I'd get some clothes dryer type flexible tubing since it would be air tight.
