On issue is who has the time or funds for that test. BMW did a lot of R&D to make the intake flow as good as it does. (Granted with in the restrictions of sound and emissions.)

Has anyone tried taking a stock lid and clearing out all the baffles? I know someone tried making a new lid and it did not work.

Only other idea is get the dual cone AFE intake system and make a custom inclosed housing. That would give you the larger surface area and a closed system from heat soaking.
