Default What GM IAT resistor values are you using?

I'm think I am using the right values, but my IAT temps today were surprisingly high while driving. The values are slightly different than what diyautotune tells people to use. I did this because in cooler weather my IAT and CLT values did not match when i would start the car in the morning.

80 degrees outside, and 100* underhood temps while cruising. Boosting to 22 psi raised the IAT temp from 100* to 130*.

IAT is after intercooler.

Before starting the car the coolant and IAT were only separated by 1 degree. I'm thinking my little FM intercooler may not be cutting it anymore.

whats the problem?

your mad that your intercooler can effectively lower the heat from a turbo a 22psi from ~200° to 30°?
