Looks great and welcome to EM.
I wouldn't worry about the intake temp so much. As long as coolant and tranny temp are OK, the leave your grill block as is.
Is yours an auto or a manual? If auto, can you monitor the tranny temp with the Scangauge II?
Add vehicle data and fuel logs in the EM Garage and it cuts down on a lot of the questions about your vehicle.
