I recently watched an episode on "Unwrapped" that focused on this very product. The "hot" seasonings of the Cheetos's were basically Cayenne Pepper, chili Powder and a couple of ingredients that they didn't mention, but I'm sure with your baking trial and errors testing, you could figure it out.  Maybe some Plabano Peppers, Jalapeno Juices, Tabasco, any really hot pepper could put your chips to the next level of heat!  Good luck with the 5$ price tag though and as for a name, possibly you could go with "Flaming Cheetos", just a thought though.  Good luck and happy experimenting with your spice shelf!
