Air Temp / Fuel Compensation Tables
^^ Sounds good, I'll check the cal. you sent me earlier today. I must have been tired when I read that email as I forgot you sent me a 1000cc 1052 map. That will help out tons, I love comparing my maps with others as I end up learning so much. Thanks for the help guys, I really appreciate it.

you dont need alot of air temp correction, especially w/the sensor in the manifold. The sensor in the manifold is terrible at telling you actual air temp, especially once the manifold is hot. Remember that at any reasonable throttle opening the air is moving so fast through the manifold that the manifold is not going to heat the air up.
You can easily see this. Let the car run and watch the ait's climb at idle... then hold the rpms steady at around 3000rpms.. watch the air temp drop after a few seconds, that is your real temp, the temp you saw while it was at idle was the manifold temp, not the air temp. If you have a ton of correction even based on theory, you will see the car lean out at idle. If the air was really getting that hot you wouldnt see it lean out.
in other words.. dont tune the ait tables based on what you see at idle, tune it based on what you see at higher throttle angles.
Using an open element sensor in the intake tube is a much better way to measure temps.
