Thats a good point Ian, its radiant heat therefore blowing air into the engine compartment would not have a huge effect, and so the foil is supposed to reflect the "radiation" and prevent the walls of the airbox from getting as hot.
What about those muffler heat tapes/blankets, those are also designed to prevent heat absorbtion and can further insulate the airbox.
I suppose a combination of all these things including more air blowing out the "conventive" heat as well in the engine compartment should all help.
