Assuming there's no obstructions. You could get rid of the U section by just chopping the turbo elbow really short, use a short-ish section of plastic piping the same diameter as the OEM intake, and then connect all of it using silicone couplings. Stick the sensors on the plastic part and you're done.
I wonder if you could stick some rubber molding on the end of that heat shield to seal it up kind of tight against the plastic areas to form a pseduo air box.
