Yeah, that was at the local 1/8th mile track. I'm in the process of updating my DashDAQ now. Having a weird licensing error with some of my components and my logging capability is limited now.

that was my old pump that was on it's way out. I am now rocking a sweet heavy-duty Meziere that is wired for always-on action. I think this was also before my system was split. It's much better now.

Did a run. Temps are still high. This was a third-gear pull going up a hill with a pretty significant grade, which probably didn't help since it took longer to get up to speed. 64 degrees out and 200-400 ft above sea level:

Your pulley configuration is close to 191mm, when I had a 195mm with a trunk tank , split cooling and heat exchanger, I would see around 170* on pulls all the time. Only way to get that down is with meth homey.

Probably losing quite a bit of power with those high intake temps especially in that cool weather too. Lower timing, richer mixture and power out the window.

With his pulley set up I say these IAT's are absolutely normal. I data log on the same stretch of road and have seen 180+ on a run up to 130ish...
I see a lot of people discussing IATS and making suggestions, but I never see any data logs. If any of you guys have data logs from 60-130, post them up. I'd like to see what you guys are seeing.
I don't see speed on this run, but I assume it was 1/4 mile or better.. and 167F at the top of a quarter mile is about as good as you are going to get without an ice tank, KC or Meth.
SO POST YOUR DATA LOGS ALREADY!!!
the other thing you can do is switch some hoses around... I think my IAT at 130MPH here was around 79F (75F ambient)...

Well.. My log is posted, Dennis (err Denroll) has his posted. Any others?
Back on subject, my max boot is 15.5 (190 lower / Stock Upper)
Craig is right, except you can also switch some hose around....

Dane what psi does your meth come on at, and what do you have your max psi set at on the control box? Dennis IATs imo are spot on for no trunk tank, actually I think they are pretty good.
You can see the ecu dumping fuel to cool it down further, and timing been pulled but that will be corrected with meth. I would do meth first before a trunk tank if you don't frequent tracks much and like highway runs.
