I would assume not, of course even on a NA setup the air is going to be warmer in the intake than at the air box. On the Whipple the intercooler is under the blower in the lower manifold. I would think its kinda hard to put a sensor there, not to mention w/ it being aluminum and attached to the motor just the heat coming off the aluminum would transfer into the sensor and would give a hotter reading than actual air temp inside the manifold. I`m just assuming this of course I have never had a FI setup before so a lot of this is new to me. My main concern was getting the coolest air possible into the supercharger via the ADM race cai ( the cooler the air coming in the cooler it will be after the intercooler does its thing) and having the largest most effecient intercooler of any of the current positive displacement blowers that I have seen.
