You know when we first started doing the Twin Turbo's we were using way to big of a inter-cooler... We have tested back to back from the huge over kill ones we used to use against the smaller street ones and have noticed no power drop in the 1200 rwhp range with only slightly higher inlet temps. That is one reason there would be NO benefit to putting Air/Air ICs behind the fog lights... I think it hurts you more then anything. You are right about trying to run a TT on a road course ..... I would rather have a Supercharged power adder if I had to pick between a TT and a Supercharger on a road course.
