Boost Adapter Kit

Has anyone with a boost adapter installed on their charge pipe noticed higher IATs? I recently installed a meth kit using the dinan boost adapter to tap for boost pressure to the controller. While logging, my IATs don't drop as much as I would expect while the meth is spraying. Also, it was 60° on my commute home, traffic most of the way and my IATs hit 130°. That seems a bit high. It looks like the aluminum boost adapter is acting like a heat sync and soaking up the hot air in the engine bay and keeps the TMAP sensor out of the direct air flow. If anyone has experienced something similar, any advice would help. Thanks!
