I’m considering the following to help with iats and lower under hood temps

Meth injection, only as a iat assist, non fuel support

Kooks ceramic coated headers without cats
When you're in boost, you're forcing the air through the intercoolers. When you're in bypass, you don't.

My car has lower IATs on a road course (they stay pretty consistently at 10* above ambient) than on a surface road (they can be 30-50* above ambient).

Are your IATs high when you're making the pulls, or afterward when you're driving normally?
