We did do some testing on the intercoolers in the Innovate Kit and found even in extremely hot conditions it does keep the charge temp into the engine fairly consistent. Though it may seem high (160-180 F) compared to a remote intercooler on every other kit on the market it still does the job of keep the temps consistent. Being air temps outside will never really go above 120 F (unless you live in hell), the charge temps will always stay around 160-180 and so you should have a fairly consistent tune. Really the only difference will be intake temps at this point, as it changes the power because air density changes.
