    Not sure if serious.

    OP,

    I'm not jerrell - I think his sn is similar.

    I did simple back to back runs monitoring iat's and coolant temp.
    It's not rocket science.

    Oops. I'm terrible with names and I'm pretty sure I know you from back in the day...name is very familiar lol . You used to poat on IL too?
    Anyway, IATs would obviously go down if you're running open ITBs that are up against the firewall/cowl. I dunno, if I were in a position where I had that kind of setup, I'd want to do something trick like making a nice carbon or aluminum intake that was sealed...much like that scoop/intake for the HVAC system on QD's CVCC or some of the cowl-induction setups [ictured on the first page. But that's just me.
