This functional Ram Air idea work

sorry for the cheap quicky idea drawing

but would this work. If I could find something to hack apart to make it would this work decent to make my GT Auto Ram Air Hood functional.

In order to make it have factory looking contours and stuff could I get Styrofoam (sp?) blocks from wal-mart, carve them out, the cover it with fiberglass, just basically use the foam for a mold for the fiberglass?

Also with having the siamesed/ported plenum, SLP Siamesed runners, T.E.S headers, 3" Cat-Back, How much will I notice making this ram air be functional, Will it be a big difference?
