With the tmap tube shortened and 10-11psi at 5500feet. Ripping on the trail i would see 110-130f charge temps. Wot long pull or race across lake id see 160f. Charge temps would come down to 80-90f within a few seconds when coasting. Before id see only 90-100f almost all the time. Doing this did help the heat soak start up issue. In which case sled would run good right away after being turned off for 5-15min. But cant say i could tell a diffrence while doing wot on off. But it did make it burp twice on the trail on me which it never does. I also tried a way heavier blow off valve spring. I think that helped my slow moving in the trees on a hill bog as it never happened after i put the heaver spring in. But in both attemps either together or on there own, i dont think it helped the wot hard on er on and off throttle stutter.

i watched my gauge more last ride and i saw cruising temps
of 60*-80*f in a long pull i saw 120f +/-
after hard riding and turning it off the restart temp is as hot
as 140*-150*f then quickly drops down once moving

silber was using the bullydog gt head unit with their kit for a year or maybe two
but stopped cause they kinda suck they get wet if not protected and folks were having issues with them

Mine is a glowshift guage and it has 2 needles, pre-turbo and post-turbo tempo.
I wish I could look at it while climbing but I already have af, boost, rpm, egt's to monitor and I have to ride a crazy hp sled without flying over a mountain or flying into a crevasse.
I will endeavour to glance at the guage on a long pull. Gimme 3-4 weeks when the weather is supposed to clear up.

Intercooled? How much boost?
I did a custom kit from boondocker.
gt2860, fuel controller with extra injectors
No intercooler, 9psi of boost.
No lag, crazy hp! The axys is amazing on boost! No touching the controller! Just pull and go! I will try to get some video this weekend.
