Same here. I had a short ram filter on the War Wagon before, which raised intake temps to even 90F. according to the OBD-II reading.

Later the car developed knocking, I got scared that I've raised the intake temps too much (it was the new plugs, I was an asshat to not check)

So I switched to CAI. intake temps are 71 F at about 32F

I am converting the car to ethanol gas very soon.

So do you people think WAI would help with FE, as ethanol is "leaner stuff) than gasoline and thus needs to be injected more.

Although E85 has a higher knock resistance compared to gasoline.
