here's what my setup looks like:

I want to see some numbers before I mod my heat exchanger. So far the only ones I've seen are Grippy's 5 degree difference and mjhoward's 20 degree difference (although his was at a much higher temp 190 to 170). I am currently at 145 to 155 in the 100 degree temps we have been getting, but would rather be around 120 something.
