I also think you want to track your intake air temp before you change anything. Get a baseline of comparison between ambient temps and IAT readings. IAT will be higher than ambient even in a stock vehicle. You wanna know if you improve the delta from stock configuration as a basic way of knowing if your WAI design is doing anything. Temps in an engine compartment are always higher than ambient when the engine gets hot.

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.
