This is the IAT2 temp--the hot one--and it is not a single run per one day. It was run several times back-to-back with a small cooldown window in between--just enough to be able to compare the data.So many intercooler products available, so little data. But until your work! Thanks for sharing. This is intake air temps, correct? Is this the difference immediately after a single 20-80 run? It would also be very interesting to see if the IC can impact temps after repeated high load/high rpm runs (i.e. is it anti heat soak). 30 deg F difference amounts to about 5% more dense air and should translate to about 13 hp. Probably not easy to feel that with ones butt-dyno. Might be able to see this with a phone performance app. That would be highly interesting/useful.
I wouldn't try to drive like a jerk to see if I could force a heatsoak situation, but this is Miami daily-driven so I probably would've noticed if that were an issue by now.
I will say that it was a really short time interval to cool down after a test. I may look at the thousands of rows of data again, but I could probably have paused 30 seconds between slowing down to a stop from a test and starting a new one. The time it took to stop and save the file, etc. may have taken more time than it needed to cool down. That part was noticeable and distinguishable from any placebo effect about an IC adding horsepower.
The stock IC is capable but the CVF is bigger and was ready to run again quickly.
