Default Cold air to the intake

Hi
I'm looking at options for my JWT pop charger (great international piece of USA kit) for those not familiar a very popular replacement filter/intake.

Here's the plan, I welcome your thoughts, I'm not an engineer.

I have a series of 3" aluminium piping within which I have installed a 3" hobby electric turbine fan engine. The piping is planned to duct in from the position that a cold air intake would and either feeds across an 'open top oem box with popcharger' ori have the option of gutting the oem box and feeding directly in through a purpose built hole .

I don't expect power, but I'm hoping to get the pop charger noise without heat soak

I've seen a few members adding ducting from the front bumper to a hole cut into the factory airbox. Gains are unknown, but I cant imagine there would be any negatives.

As for the fan, I'd check the CFM that it could pump out - it may end up just being a restriction at speed, so you may not even need it.
