I spent alot of time in the car this weekend so I know exactly how my intake temps are in certain situations bro.
My cooling setup is a BIP heat exchanger and trunk tank with meth. I was stranded in stop and go Atlanta traffic going up to the event. It was constant 35* above ambient. Ambient this past Friday was 90*.
Now when you are crusing with the same ambient conditions, I dropped to 28* above ambient. It never really moved from that. Off course I did some back to back highway pulls and the meth kicked in. I would start the pull roughly around 118* and end at 141*. It recovered within 15 seconds back to 118*. There was no sotp feeling of heat soak at all. The car felt like a monster every time.
Now at the track, I iced that car down with three bags on my one run, and got the temps to 70*. Ambient that day was again 90* and humid. At the end of the 1/2 mile run I was at 118* with iced water and meth.
This is the best right here lol, I sat in line for 1 full hour stop and go. This time I was heating up my bottle the entire time to get it to 1000psi. I started that run at 110*, and at the end of the 1/2 mile, I ended at 117* lol. That is with a 30\16 jet combination and it felt amazing above 6000rpms.

What's really surprising is that your meth numbers are just 1* higher than your n2o session. Do you remember the mph difference between the meth vs n2o runs? Meth is some powerful sh*zits
