I've been reading, I'm wondering. The main issue with the hot air intake or warm air intake is that it does lose air density. SO why can't someone put on a bigger throttle body and bigger aluminum tubing (aluminum so it can transfer heat better than plastic) so that it can get the same density as it was stock while getting the benefit of it being warm.

Well, the benefit of it being warm is that it is less dense, so that would cancel much of the benefit.
