Default IATs with Mina intake?

Recently installed my Mina intake and am wondering what my intake air temps are supposed to look like sitting versus moving. Anyone have any data on that?



Did two hard pulls from 30-70ish mph back to back and took a screen shot of my temps.

Pulled over and sat there for a little bit to see how high I can get the iat to go standing still.

Here is a video where they tested the Mina gallery intake on a dyno and tested the heat temps from a stock one.

Need the info using the factory sensors to compare. They used external sensors.

Specifically I’m trying to figure out if my temps are within an acceptable range with the intake with the Florida heat.

Btw I’m in Orlando also.

My intake temps are really high. I think they start around 95F like yours and go up to 147F when running the car hard. That is the reading from the ECU from my Torque app with my OBDII scanner. I am working on a better insulated intake/cooler system.

For some reason torque always displays a lot higher. But that’s still info I can compare to. I’ll use torque and see what I get.

Okay, so after some time with it on, I’m very impressed at how the car is doing. Sitting still the temps do go up. But moving it cools down pretty well. The car seems to be breathing a lot better. I’ll keep on testing and reporting back and it gets hotter outside.
