Talking Re: I did a study of inlet pipe insulation and SUPRISE

Depending on conditions in traffic and driving speed I measured 6 to 10 degree cooler inlet pipes after the mylar bubble insulation.

I have now insulated both pipes and will be taking a measurment of the pipe temp and the AIR INSIDE it. I placed a surface probe under the insulation to measure the insulated pipe and POKED a thermal probe into the rubber elbow to be able to sense the air entering my supercharger.

This way I can see how the AIR temp is affected as it goes thru the filter and inlet pipe, and Ill pass the results on to the forum.
