yeah had her remapped yesterday... inlet air temps @ 50 degrees (C) at full boost which is ok but will have to keep an eye out on particularly hot days (if we see any this year!) so induction kit and intercooler will be needed at some point in the near future. also discovered that the exhaust is a 5zigen.

will i see a small drop in temp with the addition of an arc induction kit - maybe get this done immediately?

no, you want an intercooler or chargecooler if you want to discrease the intake temps.
