High intake Temps

Intake temperature of 80degrees Celsius, is this bad to have it that high?

Way too high are sure you aren't reading DegF as opposed to degC?

30-40degC above ambient is normal for stock FMIC at repeated full throttle

I have Wagner evo2 comp FMIC on my m135i with jb4 - less than 20 deg above ambient

No, 100% that's what I was getting. Timing was pulled back to 2 degrees. Will damage occur at those levels?

No - timing will get retarded and whilst boost targets may increase the car will just loose power and eventually go into limp mode.

Cool, that's put my mind at rest, thanks.
