What are your intake air tempatures at!!!

Recently hooked up my scsn tool to my car to see what timing and iat were at. Noticed my iat seemed a lot higher then I remember. They were close to 200f!! and lowest ive seen them go to was around 135f. My question to you guys is, what are your air temps and how can i lower the temp back to what I remember them being at 20 to 30 above ambient? Can it be a iat sensor or a bad pump? Also what are you guys seeing as a normal reading for timing ?


Mods are h.e, johnson cm 30 pump, shorty headers, s.c pulley, intake and exhaust mods and 80mm t.b..

All help is greatly appreciated juat trying to make sure i wont have any issues.

Those are crazy high. Check the pump or see if there is fluid in your reservoir if you have split system.

As Denroll & Shard stated...most likely a bad pump. Upgrade to Bosch 010

Way high! Is your S/C shutting off at WOT?
I see appx 15-20 above ambient, measured at surge tanks.

Im gonna swap out tthr pump to test with my stock one but thr weird thing is there is no s.c shut off. Car still feels like it pulls when I get on it. If its not a pump could it be a bad iat sensor? But thanks im going check out the pump and get back to you guys were can I find a bosch pump?

Split the system and change the pump out. Then look into a killer chiller trunk tank and for extra fun add meth. Super cool IATs

Thanks guys im gonna try the pump first and see if that brings the temps down. I've been thinking of doing a split system hopefully that will be my next years mod. Which pump do you guys recommand bosch or meszire. Not sure if i want to get another johnson all though it hasn't givin me any issues in the past maybe a cm90?

Wow yes, even on 100F days here, cruising AITs are "only" 15-20F above ambient. I just have a Bosch 010. No split or H/E upgrade.

At cursing speed? If so, then yes something is wrong and most likely pump. If at WOT, it can get that high and higher depending on your mods.

I have a CM30 and it stopped functioning about a year ago. It was the fuse. The CM30 draws more current than the Bosh. I think it was originally 10 amp and I replaced it with a 15 amp.

I had the old pump installed before and the supercharger used to shut off after 1 WOT.

Bought the new Bosch pump the supercharger shuts off after 3 runs.

Is it possible that the new pump is defective ? Or it's just the temperature here is very high ... ?

I remember there where a chart shows that merize is good, and the best was an amg pump which is expensive.

It's not really a mod you'd need to save up for. I got my reservoir on eBay for around $35 or so.
