Default What are your IAT's?

My IAT's after warmup are as high as 150F. When the supercharger is in boost it spikes up as high as 190F and the returning back to 150 under normal driving. I definitely will be installing the Meth Injection Kit. Are these IAT's similar to what you are seeing????? Please advise.

How much boost are you pushing with your setup. I'm pushing 11psi and was wondering what my intake air temps are reaching?

160 @ WOT and about 90-100 at cruise. Approx 20-30 over ambient.

Mine stay at about 5 degrees above ambient, then go up about 30 degrees during a full 1/4 mile.

My MAF sensor is upstream of the supercharger. Why would the air temperature change according to boost, unless your air is coming through the radiator, or if you're measuring the compressed air's temp? Please help a newbie.

My maf is after the blower and intercooler. The temp rises because compressing air makes the temp rise.

Default Oh.

I forgot to check your signatures, my Whipple is different. Thanks for the info, and sorry to hijack this thread.

On the STS with the GT67 and FMIC I was seeing 107deg intake air temps after a series of blasts from 15mph to 90mph. Without the FMIC on the same 13psi it was over 200deg.
