My WAI is on the heat shield. I had my lower grill block off to see about building shutters and I couldn't get the WAI up to temp. Put the block back on 100% closed today and I maxed out at 150F after 10 miles. I think the headers area is the path out of the engine bay. I'm going to pull the front off like you're showing above and get the shutters done.
The reason I had 100psi set on my Beetles FI is to try to fatten up the boosted air/fuel ratio. I'm going to put it back down to about 55psi when I get it running and just be satified with 3 pound of boost.
