Putting the pod filter with the IAT close to one of the K&N's is better than above or close to the motor but it is still in a closed 'container'. The air will not flow through the pod filter but around it and so will never relay the true intake temperature to the ECU.
What percentage difference this makes is anyone's guess but ultimately it would be best to have the IAT actually in the intake air flow as intended.
