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...

Depending on where you are at it could be substantially warmer out too.
Back in the winter I would never see above 100 temps unless the car was idling for a long time but now that its summer the car can be cold and I will see 9x degrees by the time its warmed up and moving it can go as high as 15x.
