      cut out the lower section of the stock air filter housing-- costs nothing.

          Individual throttle bodies. The most expensive (and awesome) solution.

          There is no effective "cold air intake" for the M20, drill/cut holes in your stock air box if you want a deeper sound.

                  long tube header straight pipe to a magnaflow would probably sound great. Or on the other hand if you want it to sound amazing the solution is a s50 ;)

                      Or, 2 1/4 straight piping to a magna flow glasspack. Sounds AMAZING. To me anyway... And if you do that, DONT put any more piping after the glass pack. It kills it.
