Default CAI & IAT's

I posted some weeks ago about my "ram air" mod made by cutting through through the hood brace on the standard Formula/TA hood. Pics are below - the velcro border around the front openings is to attach rain blockers or bug screens when needed. Foam weatherstripping on rear to direct flow to airbox.

I logged a couple of passes at the track last Sunday:
Run #1
Outside Temp: 81 ECT/IAT at start: 199/97 ECT/IAT at end: 205/88
Run#2
Outside Temp: 75 ECT/IAT at start: 176/82 ECT/IAT at end: 187/77

The first pass was about 25 minutes after driving to the track and everything was pretty well heat soaked. The second pass was after 1+ hour cool down. Do you think my IAT's are any cooler than stock? I didn't have the opportunity to log before I did the hood mod.
