I have interest in the horns and have publicly disputed the scooping effect, the reduction in turbulence is interesting.
I still dispute the scooping effect, although closer to the solid tube it will lessen turbulence and I accept that. As to the member who said that a previous discussion was an awful lecture, I will study their posts and see if he/she has added to any serious discussions or if all his posts were mostly neutral or negative inputs. The increase is about 3% for the devils horns, I suspect that the gains would be hard to notice, although with a redesign it should be possible to get more.
Immediately behind the grille is a very turbulent area and I can see that filters would dampen this, the bell intake that you link to would also have this calming effect.
A devils horn shorter and without the long scoop and with a bell type end, even if it had a greater angle in it surely would be better still.

Please, do study my earlier postings. I've been on this forum for
a rather long time, and I've offered input on many subjects. I happened
to think your posting (if it was yours, I wasn't too interested in
remembering the name) was over blown and rather snooty. If you find
that offensive, sorry, but that was my opinion.
