This morning I got to work and shut the car off. I Immediately got the infrared thermometer. Right by the clamp measured 100 degrees. By the airbox measured 80. The plastic tube right in front of the throttle body measured 70. The metal pipe cooled dramatically within seconds. I'm thinking some insulation might help on the metal pipe to keep the temperature moderated. I really need to hook up a voltmeter while driving to determine what it needs. It might be fine the way it is but until I test the iat voltage I'm guessing
