I'll agree with others that you're sucking in a lot of hot air. As for oiling, we don't have a MAF so it doesn't really matter.
I definitely am sucking in some hot air but when I log it's not as terrible as you think but I won't give it up for the wonderful sounds I had a different type of filter in a little different set up in there before this works beautifully and according to the logs which I can take a screenshot of then again I am in the northeast and it is winter - come the warm weather again I'll show you it's not as terrible as you think but like I said with the scoops under where you have the two air inlets for the airbox without those scoops you're gonna go up about 15°- 20° EASY !
