Dude, what the temperature is when installed is completely irrelevant.....you are WAY over thinking it.

Dealership can't touch your cats if you are in the U.S. unless replaced by another true cat. On the Stillen HFC's, it says "For Off-Road Use only". It's illegal for anyone to replace emissions equipment in the U.S. unless its a performance shop where as everything they do is considered to be for "Off-road" use anyways. Either way, air temp does not matter.
