Very similar to the basic shape of the one on my nova (RS200 one) and that seems to work well.
With fluid dynamics though you need to be careful on angles, if the angle at the top by the throttle body is too great (IMHO it is on those pictures) then it will cause turbulance I believe.
You need to talk to an expert on the subject really, or better still do some trial and error.
On my rs200 one, the angle looks very steep but the reality is if you look close enough that its a curve not a straight edge, this is what I therefore think that you should do with yours, curve the two sides where they join the TB
Here is mine:

I would have though the standard YB trumpets on the inlet manifold would be ideal mate if you mean at that end ![Big Grin](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
If you mean about making it trumpet style in terms of how it flares out from the TB, then yes that should be a good solution.
You just need something to manage that initial transition as it enters the plenum
