I had an short induction kit fitted a while back, and I have just noticed that the pipes have lost shape, and as a result the airflow looks like it is becoming restricted. That no doubt would mean less ponies. Has anyone else had this problem?

Try revving the engine while looking at the pipes and make sure they are not collapsing under vacuum. Remember watch a vid once showing this happening. They looked fine and then just collapsed like paper under revs and then popped back after revs. Funny thing was that the engine still revved fine, but then it was off load.

Time for a new set smile

Also those look a bit thinner (more space in between them) than my Joo-supplied ones.
