MAD 5” intercooler and chargepipe, Stage 1 93 Bootmod3 logs in Sport+. 69F ambient. IATs still rise similarly to stock tune logs I posted but recovery time is excellent. I ran the logs a bit longer so people can see the return back to starting IAT. Generally temps were back down to original IATs within a minute or so on the freeway and about 10 degrees over ambient.
Overall I think it’s a solid choice for a stage 1 DD in a cool to moderate climate. I am satisfied with the results given my driving style and climate. The 20ish degree rise in IATs during the pull is probably not what you want if it’s consistently 90+ degrees outside. Same thing if you’re running on track- the increasing temps on throttle are probably more than you’d want. However, If you’re juicing it every couple minutes through a gear or two, it brings you back to an almost even starting point after a short period. I’m not sure what the recovery looks like on larger ICs or those with higher fin density, but my guess based on sheer physics is that the MAD unit is probably recovering more quickly than them, making it a better DD option. Additional lag over the stock IC is not noticeable.
