Higher intake temp = less dense air charge = lower O2 content = less fuel injected = more throttle required for same amount of power = lower pumping and throttling losses = better efficiency. My Jeep starts to knock around 140*, my girlfriend's Focus starts to knock around 150-155* (at least that's when the knock sensor says it's knocking)
