Default ls3 twin turbo intake temps ?

hey guys just curious to what is a normal daily driver intake temp is ?

mine can get upto 113f or higher.. but seems to be 95f or lower off boost.

I've only got a china front mount so wondering if i should upgrade to a better quality one.

pretty hard to go wrong with a better flowing bigger, more efficient intercooler

measure IAT before and after the intercooler as well as the pressure drop across the core and that will help you see if the intercooler you have is doing the job.

or just spend the cash on a better quality unit rated for your CFM and HP needs., because you KNOW it will be better. good luck

hope this helps
