I cut out a section of my inner and put in an offset K&N to pull some cooler air in from the wheelwell. i don't know if it was the cleaner air (probably) or the better inlet but I went from 8.6 to 11.1 pounds of boost with it. Honestly I think it was from the old nasty stock ATI/K&N cone air cleaner being a restriction..
I'm so glad to hear that! Could you possibly email or post a photo? My stroker gives off so much heat that without the intercooler, I would fear predet.... One thing I was also thinking about was fabbing a carbon fiber heat shield and place it between the engine and the supercharger.
