#8979, "Thermometer in my CIA. old post i just did it"


          

well i was reading old postsand i took his idea and did it.. i love this site.. haah

well it was 15 something at radio shack.. its small like a turbo timer.. 2 displays in and out

drilled a hole throug the lilplug i had in the intake.. cuz i have a breather filter put some of that steel braded stuff over the wire just to project it and make it look bettter.. well i stuck the lil nipple through it and pluged it back up
went for a drive.. it was a about 74degrees last nigt.. and this morn it was 71.. but what i dont get is during lunch 11 it was 70 but warmer.. im ot sure if it works to good its been n 70of the day now.. is that a good temp?? sounds kinda high..hmm im going to play with stuff now to see if i can lower it..

well it took about 15 mins maybe..

I love dino and 2gnt. ####ers (my word) bliz stole it but i let him borrow it

just so you know man its CAI (Cold Air Intake) not CIA. Are you saying that you put a thermometer in your intake and ur measuring the temp of the air going into the engine???

So what is the benifit of knowing the Temp. of the air intake charge? How does this help with anything? And most importantly why did you do it?

well i read about it and said what the hell and it was a typo

my keyboard is dying on me.. and its hard to type grrr

well i guess the reason was to see if i could see what i can do to make the air a lil colder.. though i know that it all depends on what the temp is outside..but its always in the 70s.. i mean its just 15 bucks.. no biggie

I love dino and 2gnt. ####ers (my word) bliz stole it but i let him borrow it

Probably be a nice thing to have in your turbosystem, if you could keep it from leaking. intake air temp is a good thing to know sometimes.

Ya thats what I was thinking, if your turboed. But thats why I asked why he did it b/c he is NA.

No disrespect to you evan2, just was wondering.
