Temp differences between C&L and stock intake?

Does anyone know the approx engine air temperature difference between the C&L intake and stock intake?

I know C&L runs a little hotter, just wondering if it makes a difference in hurting the engine or not.

The C&L will run COOLER, not HOTTER than the stock intake. How much? I don't know, don't have one.

On another note, how do you like your Bassani SS's? I've been thinking about getting some myself.

I'd say it will run cooler than a stock intake.

Love 'em. I haven't heard anything deeper yet(deeper axlebacks that is). They do have some drone, but I have almost eliminated it when I have some stuff in my trunk. Kills some of the resonance. I'm going to be getting some plush carpet soon to insulate the trunk. Then I should be good. But I wouldn't trade them for any exhaust. Plus they look awsome with those 4" SS tips.

Most people said it runs a little hotter, but usually in hotter climates.

That was a great thread to read. Thanks for the Link to it.

Frrom what i can tell the C&L seems to have the best IAT temps of all. Although the WMS may edge it out but that thing is so fugly who cares.
