I think you're overthinking it a little. It wouldn't be much different than how the air travels in a snorkel, which has very little to no affect on how these 4runners perform. It would be a much shorter run anyway. By the time the air moves through the air filter and charcoal filter, any turbulence is going to be smoothed out. I mean, it's an anemic 1GR with piss poor factory tuning anyway. Some custom tuning would probably help out all around.
