Throwing out a question to those just using the bucktooth stock JDL intercooler; what are you IATs during a pull? With a GTX3076r gen2 my IATs are hitting 150f at 20PSI in one single pull at 90f ambient. I don't know if this is expected or not and just wanted to poll the audience.
I'm seeing if Jesse has any of the upgraded intercoolers, but if there's something inherently wrong with my setup it'd be nice to know first. I am going to work on some temporary ducting to see how it helps for street driving.

TL;Dr - For those above 300WHP, tell me your IATs during a pull near redline if you have the stock bucktooth JDL intercooler

Please tell me you have an oil cooler!
Just to follow up on this, my oil temps are staying between 200 and 225f with my driving on the street. This is absolutely the highest ambient air the car will see so I am holding off on an oil cooler to reduce complexity (90f here in uncommon). I haven't mocked up an intake yet but am finding urgent need to do so, as IATs during pulls are unacceptable.
