Yeah I'm pretty sure that's the Weapon-R Dragon foam intake.

Heh...the lower half of the airbox is still there...seems to kind of defeat the purpose of more airflow if you keep the stock restriction in place.

I would avoid foam filters as they have a proven record of not filtering too well. Other intakes have a cotton mesh which filters better, but I have a feeling nothing filters as good (dirt wise) as a stock paper filter.

Looks ugly, but the filters still open to breathe 360 degrees. Maybe a small cold air charge through the stock piping? Need to test with a temp probe but the difference in power either way would be very small.
