Hi Everyone,
I have a water-air setup I have been running, but have not been able to get past high IAT's only while under boost. It rarely heat soaks and it will drop back to reasonable temps shortly after a pull. I tried a pull around 5psi and the IAT's still went over 100*F
I have a kit from Frozenboost.
Type 8 Core:http://www.frozenboost.com/air_water-ic/compact-liquid_air-intercooler-p-209.html
Type 118 Exchanger:http://www.frozenboost.com/water-to-air-heat-exchanger/air-to-water-radiator-p-1063.html
and a rule pump:http://www.frozenboost.com/liquid-air-adapter/intercooler-pump-p-1000.html
I have tried a couple reservoirs, and am now running a large peanut butter jar(ha,tried to get more water volume)
At first I was running 1/2 inch water lines and fittings with a compound turbo setup (main reason for running this, lack of space)
I was getting up into the 140-150*F on pulls.
Since then I have switched to just a single turbo 14b and 3/4" lines and fittings and I still have the same high IAT's.
I think my sensor is working alright, GM IAT (it starts off at ambient temps) and I have it tapped into my q45 TB.
I have a few older pictures, to help you guys visualize.
Here are a few logs:

I am looking for people who have experience running water/air setups to give me some troubleshooting ideas.
Thanks,
