While out today, the outside air temps didn't go much above 90. While driving down the highway (60+ mph) my air intakes were very similar to outside air temp levels..... but when moving along in 4 low, my air intake temp was hitting 160.
I've got to think that a HUGE increase like that has got to be killing some power and efficiency... as well, the engine is likely running warmer because of it (although maybe just a few degrees).....
Thoughts? Really makes me think a snorkel would do wonders.
