From what I've seen, the stock airbox intake temp is approx 10 degrees F hotter than ambient air temp while moving down the highway at speed. There's a lot of room for improvement here.

As far as measurement, any OBD2 device hooked into your android phone will be able to give you the car's intake temp. Cross-reference that with the ambient air temp from the trip computer and you're good to go.
