Your data is about what I expected. And I agree, fans on the IC will not help -- fans in a race car are only used when there is no air flow (aka not driving at speed) -- when racing (if you have fans) you turn them off, only when you come into pits or doing cool down laps do you turn the fans back on (aka low speed).

Does anyone have a charge cooler? Would be nice to get their numbers -- but my hunch is that a charge cooler's benefit is with more stability and consistant temps under load and non-load situations -- I don't think it would necessarily reduce the air/gas mix tempurature that ultimately goes into the cyclinder chamber.
