buster - is your ambient sensor touching the intercooler? Hard to tell in that picture.
Strange my pipe wasnt a full 3" it was a 3" to 2.5 or 2 hard to tell since i gave it away with my 7in intercooler. I'm guessing that i got sent the wrong size which is why i didnt see a reason to change it out.

As for the sensor its about 1-2mm away from it. Not directly touching. I wasnt sure what that sensor was for lol, just relocated it because i had to.
