This is a little harder to remember (2 numbers) and harder to do (juggle 2 feelre gauges), but the intakes run cooler and don't expand as much as the exhausts. So this can be done without any negative consequences. Positive consequences: slightly quieter valve noise, slightly reduced valve train wear, slightly better intake breathing. I have been doing this since about 1980.
