I've seen people cut holes in the stock air box for more air. These people didn't insulate their holes from the engine bay so they essentially ruined a good CAI that comes from the factory.

The lower portion of the stock intake has a bunch of cross support plastic. Has anyone ever attempted to remove these air / sound obstructing pieces while keeping the rest of the box intact? Searching this forum only results in people cutting holes.

I prefer / enjoy DIY experiments over buying over-priced products.

I'm not knocking people's products. I think the Rotofab intake is fantastic, but $430+ for 3-5 rwhp, that's a tough pill to swallow.
