Default Re: Intake temperature?

I just stole a hood scooop off an STI... No, really I did!

Some people like it, the Scooby guys hate it....but ehhh...it works... After cruizing around for a bit I can actually touch the intake manifold! I measure IAT's before the TB, so I don't really have any before/after #'s.

I can tell you though that I'm not impressed with the Ebay China Bar/Plate IC's though. I had 1/2 a Kenworth IC on there, never saw IAT's above 99. The end-tank was not designed for how I had it setup (probably really poor flow), and it looked kinda crappy so I replaced all my IC piping with pollished, and a new BIG IC. Now I'm registering 120 regularly under boost, and 140 when abusing it...
