Turbo/Super charger Intake Temp without air cooler. 5-6 psi

**q1234567890** · 03-21-2006, 06:05 AM

I am fianly getting around to really tuning my car with the sts turbo kit runing only 5 psi and no inter cooler I am seeing max of 156F max IAT Temp I was wondering whats this compares to on a blower car with no cooler or a aftercooler thats runing with out ICE. My procharger kit was runing like 200F after a hard run with no cooler. So I am very impressed that this turbo kit is around the 130-140F with out a cooler. SO the real truth is car does not even need tuning if u bolt the kit on and run has long has u have big enough injectors the car run with stock fuel and timing trim will run fine on the 5 PSI.
I am thinkging intercooler will drop the temps to 120F max and down.

in summer, with 85F outside air it goes up to 180F at WOT with 5-6 PSI.
This is a non intercooled Vortech.
I added a water-alcohol injection: now I don't see higher than 80F (also in summer)
