Isn't the stock box a cold air intake?

I see a number of aftermarket units have holes that allow engine compartment air to enter as well as the cold fender well air. Personally I don't have an issue with this because if the choice is pulling a little warm air vs restricting air intake - I think the restrictin intake as a bigger HP loss.

After researching this issue for an hour or so - I'm leaning towards just ordering a K&N filter and let it go at that. I would like a little more noise under the hood, but an not sure it is worth the trouble.

Anyway, I'll probably let this thread play out before I make a decision.
