I have my CAI plumbed to the front of my truck so it is basically force fed air at what ever the outside temp is. I can block some of this off and it will take some or all from the engine compartment. How cold is too cold on air intake? Today it was 25 outside should I worry?
Thanks

Should be no issue on how the engine runs as long as you are running an IAT ( intake air temp sensor ) and/or O2 sensor. The colder air will be more dense with oxygen and run better. The motor will run leaner but should compensate with the above sensors.

I have all the sensors so it will compensate, I know they run better at the colder temps but wasnt sure if there is a chance of freezing up or what? I may just monitor the IAT and see what it does.
