[QUOTE="SteveWK, post: 16433803, member: 139323"] Sorry I didn't get back sooner. Thanks for the input. Much appreciated. Lately I haven't been able to spend any time on this project since I was doing other things to the car. My end goal here is to keep IAT2s under control during spirited street driving. From my previous logs, it looks like my setup is good for one highway pull in 3rd. If I immediately follow that with other pulls, IAT2 just goes up and up. It seems like the intercooler can keep up but the water in the system doesn't get cooled by the heat exchanger fast enough. I could verify this knowing the water temps going in and out of the intercooler, but I don't have that option at the moment. I'm pretty sure BiminiLX has a trunk tank with the stock lines going in and out of the intercooler and that seems to work pretty well for him. He did upgrade the intercooler and modify the intake to expose more of the intercooler, but he has about 450 more hp than I do too. At this point I'm thinking trunk tank with a second pump. I was all gung-ho about replacing the stock intercooler but now that it is in the 90's everyday, not so much. [/QUOTE]
