Here's my solution:
The stock filter sits off to the driver's side more, in front of the battery. It also pulls cool air from the fender well and is blocked off from the exhaust heat. To build the one in the pic, I simply purchased a cheap "racing" intake, cut the pipe and rotated it 180 deg.
Next step is using a exhaust cutout, an rpm window switch, and a temp sensor with a Y that goes to cold air as well. Above a certain temp, cold air will be let in, and also above a certain RPM. For now, this seems to work just fine, though the loss of power is quite noticeable.
