I ran the Perrin cold-air and it helped a little on IAT1s but never got data on IAT2s. The perrin extension makes the intake induction really long but it felt great on mine. I was considering modifying my AEM box, I think it can be done easily and it keeps the air sealed.

The BRZ runs like an arctic train compared to my CTS-V. My V feels like Africa after idling for 10 seconds from a cold start.

Lol same with my c7 z51 vette. That engine bay gets really hot. I feel like so far my frs is staying quite cool considering it's hot as hell in Texas right now. Only thing I may get eventually is an oil cooler.
