S60 2003 N/A weird engine shuts off

It looks like someone in the past cut a hole into the air box. I would guess, they did so to have more 'sport' engine noise, a getto mod. I might be wrong, but this is really bad because all the air that gets into the engine is hot air, winter summer, plus it doesn't have any pressure at all - pressure is built up because the normal air intake comes from the front of the car behind the grid and the air is 'pushed' in by the speed of the car.

What's wrong with these people

I'll start sorting out the parts and report back

I really appreciate your help on this, thanks a lot
