What flows better,IROC air filter housing or TA's?

I was thinking of putting a bend before in front of the MAF then routed either under the car or to the fender(then louver holes in the fender).An open air filter at the end.

idea #2 How about inlet fromthe bottom of the car,filter,then MAF.MOving the MAF farther from the TB?
what do you think?

I'm pretty sure that the camaro style intake is a little better. I've tried many different setups and always go back to the good'ol original.
Just keep it, its a factory cold-air intake!
Also on my car, the maf is a little picky on where it is located. It seemed the further away i had it from the TB, the more running probs. i had.
good luck.
