But couldnt you take a S.W.A.G. and guestimate what the temp wil be coming 
out of the turbo, by the temp of the turbo and the amount the air heats due 
to compression (boost)?  If not, somone would have HAD to document these 
values in a before and after test of say installing a front mount IC.

If you COULD guestimate what the intake charge would be, just have to apply 
that to the pre-turbo temp values to achieve an actual air entering engine 
value. Am I way off here?
