Trust me, I didnt jump into this one blind 
And again, unless the subaru design is worse then others, I never noticed sitting traffic heat soak with my neon’s fmic. I’d imagine stale air no matter what would cause heat soak, but you think sitting over the turbo would do it more, then sitting onfront of the car, directly in the path of wind.

oh, im with you. i had 2 different intercoolers on the civic. the side mount, that was mounted on the inside of the rad support, and a front mount on the other side. the difference was night and day with how quickly it would heat up in daily driving, or sitting in line at auto-x.
