JRE is just looking at IAT2 rise over 10 seconds, where the roadcourse people are trying not to boil all the fluid in the system. You are trying compare apples and oranges. Just like the others are saying, the more fluid in the system the longer it will take to boil. No it won't change the increase in heat between IAT1 and IAT2, but it should allow you to run longer before the fluid overheats.
I have a question or theory, if the system is plumbed to have a hx directly before and after the intercooler (2 hx), would that help to keep the fluid from getting as hot as fast? Dont know if anyone has tried it or not.

Wouldn't hurt....would also increase coolant volume...lol
