If you have an open-element filter (K&N, KKM, S&B) you've surely felt the heatsoak. Even some of the simpler heatshields made from cut-up Rubbermaid mailboxes can reduce intake temperatures to be much closer to ambient. DemonSVT has data on this where his heatshield, combined with some tubing to pull up air from down near the front bumper, kept his intake temps pretty much at ambient.
