Default Lower Intake Temps

Hey guys.

My friend and I here in Guam are trying to figure out how to get lower intake temps. While the year round gold season is nice here it's hell if you're trying to make any power. With the stock set up IAT was at about 180F with city driving, with the Needswings Single CAI they have dropped to 140F. What can I do to an N/A engine to get the temps lower?

I've read that wrapping the intake or headers could help, but would have insignificant changes and risk damage to the headers.

Some people at the drag strip here have also mentioned putting dry ice near the intake but I want something more permanent and without the risk of something exploding under the hood.

Also something on the cheaper side, with the government shutdown going on, who knows if I'll get my next paycheck.
