Default What is the point of this? Air filter on intake manifold

I was browsing ebay and just saw this pic. I'm just wondering why this person would do this? Is there any point to it? Won't it kill performance?

Trying to trade restriction for temperature. Not exactly the best setup.

Either that or the owner of the car didn't budget for the rest of the intake.
