I see where you're coming from. I guess my concern would not be what is being forced ("rammed") through the newmission tube, but rather that the holes would reduce the amount of vacuum through the factory (cool air) tubes to nearly nothing. Granted, with the large newmisison tube, vacuum would likely be fairly low through the factory tubes already, but with the new holes I'm guessing it might be close to nonexistant.
Reducing the vacuum through the factory tubes and newmission tube and replacing it with air from the engine bay could raise intake temperature while at a stop.
