Modified vs. Stock Intake Temperatures

Modified vs. Stock Intake Temperatures


Using the TORQUE Engine Management Diagnostic App

These are my personal Temperatures that I have taken with the TORQUE app that directly talks to the ECU of my 2016 Audi S3 using IE Tune Stage 2 91 octane file and TCU Tune

They show different temperatures at certain driving stages:
Engine intake temperature - Ambient and Coolant Temperature
Torque App as displayed on my mobile phone: You can program many different types of gauges if you wish - this is just one of my screens that I like to default to

This the Bluetooth Dongle that I prefer to use - one of the main advantages over all others, is that it has an auto off so you can leave it plugged in without draining your battery - you can purchase this from Amazon

Optional Modification For More Direct Airflow into the Stock OEM Cold Air Intake System
Air Directional Vent Plugs installed into 1 Inch Drilled Holes - for Heavy Snow Areas like Minnesota in the Winter, this can be a useful modification

Optional Directional Air Flow Plugs
Heyco part #2559 Directional Vent Plugs

The Passenger side air direction vent plugs are directing air flow upwards and the Drivers side air vent plugs are directing air flow downward for a visual example.

Rotate air flow direction vent plugs so air flow is directed upward in the Summer.

Rotate air flow direction vent plugs so air flow is directed downward in the Winter.

I have left my air flow direction vent plugs directed upward for both Summer and Winter with no ill effects - simply reinstalled the "Factory Snow Guard" if needed.

This can give you between 10 to 15hp depending on supporting add-ons, i.e. Silicone Turbo Inlet Hose, Turbo Inlet Elbow Pipe, Turbo Muffler Delete, Piggy Back Power Module or a Flash Tune.
