You wouldn't face any issues going with a titanium version of the gen3's. There is no patent since it's existing technology, copyrights don't extend to designs(you can't call it a stillen gen 3 intake of course though), and it isn't a trade secret since the information to design it is easily attainable a tube of same diameter as the OEM MAF section, bent to clear the engine and core support with maximum bend radii, and place the filters in the cool high pressure air in front of the radiator shielded from debris by the bumper. There is nothing fancy about the gen 3 and yu couldn't face any action by making a similar intake. Even the new takeda? is the same design with a different filter. You are also not making a copy but a similar but different improved part. Go for it, also 3" is way to big unless you want to rescale the MAF sensors in the ecu to install it.
