Not sure which parts you are referring to. I’m just interested in the air filter relocation. Here is a link to someone who did something similar with a 3-D printer but hacked away a lot more at the radiator support. The one above just uses the existing hole although it too may have been enlarged. Topz mentioned the 3D printed version would pick up some horsepower for sure. How much is not known, and probably becomes more useful as you approach the 550 to 600 power levels. SOHO seems to only publish dyno sheets of air to air supercharger kits that use a turbo guard. Why? There is some benefit but even they are saying they don’t know how much. Personally I find it strange, that a reputable shop would remove an air filter with no idea of the benefits of doing so.
