I wouldn't be all that concerned about IAT's at cruise, and would pay a lot more attention to them at WOT. If the system is efficient, you should not be seeing IAT's more than 15% over ambient (at about 10psi of boost). Also, my experience shows that turbine housing flow has a lot more to do with IAT's than the size of the intercooler.
