warmer air is better for combustion but less 02 as warm air is less dense ;
colder air is denser , more air = more 02 = more power available at WOT
mr computer
already has control of fuel and timing so
mr computer
will match air temp to a calculated value of timing and fuel volume which will be corrected in a feedback loop
from inputs from the AFR or 02 sensor in the exhaust
you
can not change anything
mr computer has control
so
heat the air as much as you feel will help ,
watch knock retard values in your scan tool and when they start to increase
beyond the baseline value
stop increasing air temp
of course you need a baseline scan data test graphed or logged of knock retard
at various loads
and ambient temperatures
before you begin your modification
