I read this thread too and just to put my thoughts out there I think that those ridges on the inside are just there to collect dirt. It is common on a lot of cars to have that design. Air gets sucked up hits the air filter and drops back down and collects between those ridges.
Most likely it wont be a power gainer but it does add sound for a nice effect.
Also some people were talking about why there wasnt an open air element if it makes more power. Well just like the stock exhaust its quiet

After I saw this thread I decided to do this.

After seeing the F box I drilled a hole the same size. And I dremeled off all the ridges so now it is smooth.
Ps: took me 2 hours haha
