Default Intake temperature?

I have seen some mention in threads involving aftermarket hoods but no real discussion across the board as to the intake temperatures you all have seen and under what conditions.

I hooked up my scanmaster 3 today so I was playing with the features and one is a realtime of the temp from you MAS. The high today was 52 and at idle and low cruise I saw temps as high as 134. When cruising at 65/70 as the car began to get some fresh air through it came down to 91-95.

Over the next week or so I will have more numbers but I wanted to see the intake temps others are and have seen and under what conditions (area, aftermarket hood, cold air wall, cold air intake, FMIC, SMIC).

For me with a stock 1st gen hood (3 holes cut in the stock blisters), rear rubber seal removed, and DSM SMIC's, I saw the above.

130-135 at idle (roughly 80 degrees above ambient)
90-95 at cruise (roughly 45ish above ambient).
