Yes, the SR Motorsports intake has been discussed before, but it has been a while ago. I think, if I remember correctly, that it is the disruption of the air moving past the MAF (as zoomzoom8 said). In the stock system screens are used to correct the flow. This is how I remember it. Do a search to be sure.
