    My IAT's stay really low. When it was around 100 out they were at like 104 - 108 depending on speed.

    Yeah - the wiring never occurred to me that that could be the problem. But it makes total sense. If it's getting low voltage, they woudn't run as strong.

    The hotpipes are from KB Racing. I need to work on footbraking it. HAd to borrow a gauge before and it was dark so couldn't see it lol.

    And yeah ramsey - the IAT's surprise me too. I guess it's the intercooler design or something. It just stays really cool.
