ls3 twin turbo intake temps ?

[wooly]

hey guys just curious to what is a normal daily driver intake temp is ?

mine can get upto 45degs but seems to be 35 or lower of boost.

I've only got a china front mount so wondering if i should upgrade to a better quality one.

45C isn't bad for cruising. In the Summer months here in the middle of the US, I can see temps reach 60-61C if stuck in town with stop/go traffic. The biggest thing would be how much temperature rise do you see when in boost with your current intercooler? If its only a few degrees, when not heat soaked, then I would call it good. If your raising say 20-40F, I would start looking for another intercooler.

yeah thanks for reply mate

seems that my current cooler isn't doing that bad of a job.
only reading pre intake temps but, will try measure before and post cooler see how much its changing
