Based on the information in the referred thread and some info I got from Roman a few weeks ago it will likely be that:

- 5.5 - 6.0 psi intercooled boost will result in IAT's 50 degF over ambient
- 4.0 psi non intercooled boost will result in IAT's 50 degF over ambient as well

In case it is like this, it will be very good for my planned 4.0 psi ESS VT1 kit. Can someone confirm, please ?

On the other hand it will mean that in either case on hot summerdays IAT's of 150 degF ( 65.56 degC ) are possible. Any concerns to that ?

Thanks,
Eugen
