From almost every post I've seen regarding "ram air" boxes, most TA owners will tell you that your best bet is to just stay with the lid. You will probably be better off taking air from below the car than through the hood. Here is a thread with some info:

All lids will do about the same gain. take your nostril baffles out, and put some foam around the back part where the air comes out to ur lid. That'll yield a bit better feel. Do the free ram air mod as well. If you've done these, then thats all the basic stuff you can do. If you're willing to put a little work out, move your cooler to the side, and run an ftra. I just took mine off because im building my own...
