I agree. The climate alone will heatsoak any intercooler and the traffic condition will worsen engine & turbo temperature, even without tuning. I'm currently looking for size reference and intercooler design reference to get custom intercooler made by local workshop that own racing team.That will heatsoak any intercooler, once you move for a while an upgraded intercooler will be much better than stock helping the turbo to make consistent performance.
Purchasing trusted brand intercooler from PRL Motorsport in the country is very expensive as the intercooler with piping will net me a USD 2,200. Importing by myself will only save me USD 200-300. Thus, total cost for intercooler plus KTuner will be USD 3,043 (KTuner cost about USD 843). Therefore, importing from US is not an option.
I'm browsing Civic X forum at the moment to find intercooler design reference.
I might also need to upgrade the radiator but I will need to observe this after intercooler upgrade.
