Intake Temp Increased after Filter Swap

[Andrew@Lethal]

Your IATs will fluctuate differently everyday. All comes down to how long you let the car idle, weather, and how long you drove. Also might want to check if the airbox is fully sealed.

Yes.
My IATs are usually between 3-5C above ambient, unless its the middle of the summer...
3-5C translates to about 5 - 10F. Nothing wrong here....

When you're rolling steadily at speed on the freeway.

Come to a stop. Wait a few minutes for a light. Get caught in traffic, and your IATs will sky-rocket.

I've seen 140+ degrees in traffic.

Are you being serious or facetious? I can't tell.

If serious, then you should inflate to the rating on the door when cold and leave them be.

If facetious then just ignore me...

seriously? lol

It's not funny if i have to explain the sarcasm

Facetious it is then...

Sarcasm needs to be much more blatant when written in forums. Subtlety can slip right past when they're enough newbs around who would actually ask that question...

i have the same issue with my tire pressure... 5 minutes after start driving the pressure goes up... what should i do? I've been thinking about removing air from the tires while driving so i'm always at 32

The 32 psi on the door jamb recommended by FORD is the COLD tire pressure. So why do you wanna keep it at the cold psi ? If you do, fab up some sort of autofill system like hummers have, and you should always have 32 psi weather it's -30c or +30c.

I'll fill the tires with liquid nitrogen so the tires are always cold

I think Mythbusters did an episode where they filled footballs with helium. They did not fly any further.
