Mate, there isn't much short of a battery relocation that can really improve on that due to the TB location on the 1.6 Zetec.
Maybe get a hold of some flexable air intake hose (90mm) from supercheap or autobahn and make up some sort of air scoop out of flexable plastic (Icecream containers provide a cheap source for this, or plant pots, as they are black and less visable, just remember to hide them from view, as although they are effective, it's not a real good look! LOL) and duct more cold air from under the car from the vicinity of the passenger side front up too the pod. This keeps the air tract length too a (already) minimum and keeps the pod nice and high and dry.
PS Love the numberplate.
