For your cold intake...
You should check out what Sparker, on here, did for his intake. Essentially he sealed a tube with an inline filter to the side scoop; cold air coming right in. I am sure there are others, tunners, that have done it as well. It was also in carbon fiber, but it looked great.
Perhaps if you insulated it, it could be what you are looking for. IPD seems to make all kinds of insulation blankets. I am also thinking the air would be moving so fast (straighter shot to the the TB) that there would be less "heat exposure" time in the engine bay. There is the problem of water injestion to consider though.
Next you need a little bit of a side scoop on the left side to get some free ram air pressure in there!

thats for the new plenum, four shorter throttle body bolts and washers, a gasket for between the throttle body and plenum, and two larger hose clamps for the larger plenum outlets. total $55.70 + $100 throttle body = $155.70 so far. all i need now is ductwork to the throttle body ($20 spectre flex duct from ebay until i figure out the geometry of my pending cold air intake) plenum outlet reducers (i'll wait for the parts to come so that i can confirm required diameters) and some tubing for the aos (only if i can't reuse oem; if not, i think i'll go with transparent so that i can monitor just what the aos is venting into my intake).
i still think i'll get in for under $200.
