oh, not sure i've mentioned this yet. I put the new intake on and holy crap it quieted things down. didn't help my IAT's though at all. still seeing 130+ at cruise speeds. Most of the annoying *** whistle is gone though

...They also said I need to replace my bypass valve. They sell a different one for vehicles with large cams. Something about the spring on the inside being different/removed. It's all over my head but something about the blower building/holding internal boost even and cruise speeds and the new actuator will relieve that boost and in turn reduce heat. Hey, for $100 why not try it.
I checked my truck last night (first time it has run in 6 months) and I have ~16" at idle and cruise. After idling for a fair amount of time to fill the tranny with fluid, it sat for about an hour while I was creating the tune. When I took it for a drive I was seeing low-mid 140 IATs that never came down while I was driving.
This is with humid low 80 degree ambient temp. I am hoping the TrickTank will help some but I may need to look into this different bypass as well.

Did they mention at what vacuume level the upgraded bypass valve is needed?
