Well, it will allow hot engine bay air to get in to the intake. Take a look at this write up, I made this for under $100 and that was with a $45 filter

Why would this be any better than the OEM airbox?

The OEM airbox is restricted. You can get some benefits by gutting the airbox as well.

Here'* a decent write up on the benefits of a CAI Cold air intake - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
