    what are your guys' intake air temperature on your set up?

    what turbo/boost/intercooler/ etc etc

    i'm curious to see the difference between Air to Air vs Air to Water

    i have some data (from other cars) on a Air/Air (with a dry ice intercooler)

    A/A= 110-120 F (after intercooler- boosting ~25psi) with dry ice intercooler (20-70 F- depending on size of course)

    I just finished switching from the HP front mount A/A to a A/W n dash. With the A/A on 70* days I was seeing 170-190* temps at the end of the pass with 24# from twin 67's. With the A/W on 100-110* days I'm seeing 98-102* temps at the end of the pass with 24#'s...

    spankustang.. what kind of ambient temps did you get those 55-60* temps with on the 106? end of pass or beginning? at the beginning of my pass I see temps in that range but not as I shutdown

    Stock HP intercooler with a GT47-88, 180^ - 210^ at the end of the pass with ambient in the low/mid 90's at 22# of boost.

    I upgraded the A/A intercooler with a larger one and in 90^ ambient I see 160^ at the top of the run now, at the same boost.

    Twin 59's on my 4V cobra. 9lbs of boost, max inlet temp was 118 deg this morning with ambient around 90 deg. This was a 2nd thru 4th gear pull. The car has a large A/A intercooler with no meth or H20 injection.

    Just logged mine @ 9.6PSI.

    86* cruizing and ran through 4th @ 5900-6K and was seeing 91-92*s LOL. That was after repeated runs. An earlier run @ 9.0 PSI resulted in a 3* rise in temps from 3200-6K highway run. HUGE front mount...HUGE. T-61s now on the car.
