What is your guys iat reading? Mine I think is like 90 I think it was something like that.
I also went back to 12* on my timing ( red line ) not 14* so we will see how we go from here
WAI effects on IAT depend a lot on the heat of the engine--beyond just coolant temps rising to the point of the fan coming on--real heat build-up. IAT also depends on the grill block. My WAI pulls air from directly over the exhaust manifold, and all the grilling is blocked in that area. The hottest summer IAT readings I see are 140s, but 130s is more common. In this cooler weather 120s is probably more common... at least I have seen 120s a couple times when I thought to really check.

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
