Picture? I come from a more performance seeking point of view...

Although aftermarket intakes are everywhere they are fairly universally recognised as producing no power increase except in rare occasions where the stock intake is really bad. The main effect is usually more noise.

The aim of your pipe is most likley to take unheated air to the engine (cold=more dense=more oxygen for a given volume so more fuel can be burnt =more power).

It may or may not make a difference but you could replace the pipe with a larger diameter one. Hardware stores have lots of flexible pipes that would do the job.
