turbo guys: IAT's

I know IAT's are alot higher with the Radix setup compared to the centrifigual blowers (Procharger). I was wondering if IAT's are an issue with intercooled turbo setups?

Most of the air to air turbo setups we do end up about 20-25 degrees over ambient at the end of a run. Or less then ambient by 20 degrees with meth!

A2W, depends on weather or not you have ice.

my put together W/A setup hasnt ever given me a problem but with only 5# on a STS setup..
They rise a lil but nothing to even worry about, even when towing.
