Buy a small heater core, stick it in the factory air box, before the filter. Guess what? It technically doubles as a prefilter!

Many cars have small-ish heater cores that could be used for this purpose.

Grab the heater valve from an old honda, you can tweak the coolant flow into the heater core w/ a cable, so you can monitor intake temps and adjust as necessary.
