Default will this help with stock air box opened?

saw this on ebay and was wondering say if i buy it and use it with the stock air box open is it going to help the filter suck less heat/hot air in? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...item=1864314628

I still think that hot air from the engine would go into the intake, resulting in same or loss of horsepower still. Best to do is get a cai.

NO! That sort of shield would be good for reflecting "radiated" heat. It won't keep out air that is already heated from going around it and into the intake. But is sure looks PURDY. If that's important to ya, get one and tell us what it "feels" like.
