    Intake Air Temps under boost???

    Hey guys, trying to play catch up real quick here now that I have some boost to play with.

    Curious as to what type of IAT/ACT temps you guys are seeing under boost. Can you guys post up what IAT/ACT you are seeing at what boost levels, what gear you were in when measured and what Intercooler/heat exchanger set up you are running?

    My concern is that I am in dangerous territory.....and/or very limited in the timing I can run on pump gas due to the excessive heat in the air.

    My setup:

    GSM Novi 1500 6-8psi
    GSM Intercooler with upgraded 2 core heat exchanger

    IAT/ACT: +15-20deg above ambient at idle

    120-130 deg at top of 1st gear

    180 deg at top of 2nd gear

    160-170 in 3rd gear (cooler water must be hitting the intercooler here)

    What are you guys seeing????

    Thanks,

    Chris

    Water meth will make a huge difference, especially if you run overdrive pulley. I ran it for 150,000 miles on my last Toyota Tacoma.

    IAT is currently plumbed into silicone coupler between the intercooler outlet and TB opening.

    Meth injection currently plumbed in but I have that plumbed into a throttle body spacer so not seeing the actual temps after meth injection. Seriously considering moving meth inj location to the coupler and put IAT back into the throttle body spacer to see if I can get a feel for actual IAT/ACTs.

    I was thinking the same too, but my meth nozzle fits really nice in that "gsm extra injector spacer " thing that i kinda dont wanna move it. gotta nail down a po300 code before i hook up the IAT, but when i do ill let you know how those temps are. Nick

    Chris,

    sdcarguy has done alot of testing and R&D on his Vortech kit, with and without the meth kit. I bet he's got alot of the data your looking for. I believe Lafrads his tuner as well.

    ^^^ Hey, isnt' that Erik Ex-Mangum? Did you end up with it Dave? Dammm cool if you did!!! I need to charter into other forums from now on. I'm missing a bunch of info by not doing so. Chris's 300 should be a beast eve more. Is he supercharged with all the other goodies in his sig? He has to be thinking of beefing up that bottom end next huh.

    ^^^ LOL! yeah, I should have caught on to that one. I recall now you got a novi supercharger from a member here for an install you did a while back. Yep, coming back to me now.

    Congrats Chris on your new found power! Best of both worlds for sure. I'm afraid to ask as to not high jack the thread, but what did you get this time around Erik? Viper or the drag strip Challenger?

    We monitored Powerhouse's on the dyno and in fourth gear we were seeing about 30 degree's over ambient under full Boost with a tiny fan in front of the car
