I tow 3000 - 5000 lbs once a month or so and don't think that I've ever seen much more than 10F degrees of separation between outside air temperature and Intake temperature while going up a hill or accelerating briskly.

I'm probably missing something, but I never understood why an upgraded intercooler was needed on a stock X5D.

Do those of you with full deletes see something different with the stock intercooler?
