I wish I could remember where I saw it. I think it was on this site but a Q&D search didn't turn up anything.

Thanks for the input.
The front of the filter box was fairly easy to do and I ended up with no overlap for most of that area. It looks like covering the bottom of the filter box is going to be a PITA. I plan on looking online for a blanket-type insulation for the tubes between the MAFs and TBs.

I may have found a thermometer.
4-channel temp logger on eBay. Comes with two sensors. Extra sensors can be had for $2-5.
