on the crossfire,there is a large tube inside the intake for the egr.if you cut it out you will get better air flow.

I have the new DCS Renegade intake and I'm not a endorser but is well worth the money. Car pulls hard to redline. It's a day night difference in the way it runs. I will eventually swap the heads for maybe some Vortecs.

Are you going to build some kind of outside air or forced air system or just leave the filters open to the hot engine compartment air?

You may be losing some power if you are getting hotter air now than you did with the stock air cleaner.
