Yes, I actually have read that after mods done, that the G3's power output tends to not look as good as with a completely stock car.

Part of the issue is most people who have their numbers posted are using the G3's and are 310-320 whp... no one really has (that I have seen to be fair) numbers listed quite like that with just tubes and a set of K&N drop-ins.

I think that ANY intake system could work, but the SRI systems need colder air run to them... hence the reason that their numbers are low and sometimes lose power. As has been stated here many times... the OE set-up is quite good. I would love to see, and may myself get the drop ins, maf tubes and the fang vents and do a before and after. I'm looking into it and it will be rather stealth, which I also like.
