    I have plans already for a ram air hood and intake. but its a while off (have a list of projects that never ends). and i see your guys point about the gaskets. I will most likely take it out later when i have some free time, or i will build a 1/6" aluminum block off plate with the cool CNC table the shop just got so no coolent flows into it. and i will test (with are temp gun) to see if it stays colder or hotter than stock.

    back to the original topic of the forum, I went rummageing around and found the leak, the schreader valve on the fuel rail is leaking. so the innards screw out and can be replaced. so i ordered new innards $10 but they will be 7-10days so the cars gunna be sitting as much as possible till then cause its leaking onto the injectors and valve cover, and i had a buddys, buddy, burn his car to the ground because of a fuel leak.

    You are completely missing the piont. Outlet temps matter. Not the heat of the throttle body or Blower. Outlet temps can reach well over 300 degrees
