The air is getting sucked through that pipe pretty quickly. The intercooler cools the intake air from the turbo. It goes through the intercooler in small vanes and the heat is extracted. When it goes through the piping, it is going to fast through there to get heat soaked. Instead of going through 1/4 inch channels, it is going through a 2.5 inch or so pipe. There is not enough heat to completely penetrate the cool air getting shoved through that 2 and a half feet of pipe. For those of you that say it works to insulate it, that's good. I just don't see how it would especially benefit. Guess I would have to try it myself.
