As far as heat soak, bring a spray bottle and cool the intercooler before each run. It helps for the 1st 9 maybe 10 seconds of the run.
Actually, I meant to ask, can I do that? What about a big bag of ice on the ic? Once the car gets moving, heat soak isn't as much of an issue. It's when the car sits for 10-20 minutes between runs. How long between runs in an autox typically?
