You are 100% right, the other guy is completely wrong. I have multiple loggers on my car, it doesn't matter. If your car is moving anyway, the IAT should really level out and drop to where it should be.

I'm not saying its not possible, but from my experience (which includes using a full aftermarket ECU to tune a car), intake air temp (IAT) will alter your timing curve, not coolant/oil temp.

Temp inputs are used to warn the driver that things are not good. You would not want to pull just a bit of timing here...you want the driver to go 'woah!' Neo style: hence limp mode
