It's probably a little worse than that.  First, the dyno is in a still air enclosure that traps heat.  Second, the dyno's weather box is a couple feet lower than the car with the shop's new setup - bet there's +5 degrees easy at my elevation.

I've logged 135* doing 80mph....Then on the same motor but with a bisi gasket, logged 120* at the same speed and climate. Temps in the city didn't drop much going from stop light to stop light.


Maybe it's just H/F motors. I don't recall any D/B IAT's ever getting that hot.


Everything I've tuned for the last two weeks, NA or turbo, hits 150+ IATs sitting still.  135 IATs aren't uncommon for 100 degree ambient temps.

I don't think I've ever tuned at 100* ambient temps, too lazy. lol
i have...undersized cooling fan at DPU in Pasco....103* ambient, saw logs of 145* IATs with thermal IM and thermal TB gasket

ran a garden hose over the IC and the IATs dropped 30* though. back to back runs can do that when your snail is on the boundries of its efficiency though  :noel:
