Probably not as bad, but heatsoak is simply an issue for 10th gen Civic's, not to mention most vehicles with a turbo. Even big block NA V8s stand a better chance.
A REAL Cold Air Intake (ex. PRL Cobra intake), a better intercooler (ex. Mishimoto's) with charge pipes, a more open grille are all good ways of combatting heatsoak.

It’s also more prevalent with smaller, relatively high-boost turbos like the ones you get on these smaller engines. Being in Canada also helps! ?
