no wrong
porting an intake manifold will actually raise IAT temps, when you port the intake manifold you decrease the amount of time the air spends moving through the laminova cores spends being cooled, you also increase the amount of air going past the cores. Also you should see an increase in boost because the boost pressure is measured after the laminova cores, removing the restriction will allow more boost to build after the cores.

It has been done on a m62, the gains were meger 5 whp, as far as cooling goes the gains were much much better about a 24* drop in iat's.
