Once you take out the filters you'll know if you have block off plates or if they are open at the bottom. then you can either seal them up

How does blocking off the holes at the bottom of the old air boxes help? That blocks of the source of the outside air, leaving my BMS intakes to suck air from inside the engine bay?
My intake air is around 50 odd degree Celsius in my climate, drawing from the engine bay, primarily. If I were to go for a stage 2 tune, I have been advised I’ll need reduce the charge temp, and the intakes being moved would be the best way to get cooler air going in.

And to those saying not to bother with an intake, wtf? An intake and exhaust will get your car breathing much easier for when you do get a tune. I’m getting a Stage 1 done shortly, and that should give me. 680hp, or over 500kw if that’s your thing, and 850nm of torque.
