Well I did a short run last night on my way home.  Rolled in the throttle fairly aggressively on an up hill grade.  I came off of a stop sign so I started from a stop. I stayed in it until about 70 MPH.  Ambient temp was 81, IAT2 reading went to 135 and engine temp went to 226.  Engine temp quickly went down as I backed out of the throttle.  I still have the factory t-stat.  I didn't watch boost but the nGauge lights stayed green and was well in the negative with timing.  So it wasn't picking up any engine knock.  Just can't imagine what the IAT2's will ready when it's 95 or 100 here.


When the IAT2 temp hits 120 the numbers get brighter as if in a warning?  Anyone know if that's set like that as a warning?


Does the lower temp thermostat have any affect on the IAT2 temp?  I wouldn't see how it could other than the lower engine temp would help offset the higher IAT.
