I just installed Rinehart TD's and my wife feels a big difference, no more of that scorching heat on the right leg. Good luck

IED is an Inline Enrichment Device, a low cost solution to the problem by changing electronic signals to the fuel injection, slightly enrichening the mixture.

Scroll down on this link to find it.

IED- Injection Enrichment Device, marketed by Nightrider. http://www.nightrider.com/parts/
It's a resistor that you plug inline on the O2 sensor wires that reduces the voltage seen by the ECM, fooling it into thinking the engine is colder than it really is, thus richening the mixture. This results are a 20-40 degree drop in exhaust temps. They have the standard IED as well as the XIED, which does the same thing but richens the mix even more for even better cooling.

Take a look in the tech section. The topic is about 32 pages long now. They really work.
