Do a search for the user Attomica and his post about his cold airbox he built.

This one is actually functional, and has air ducting to the front of the car.

keeps the hot air from the engine bay from getting sucked back into the engine. Basicaly by getting rid of the stock air box you can add an aftermarket cone filter but you need a heat shield (cold air box) otherwise you will negate any gains you get from the filter by sucking in hot air.
