Other options for cutting down the heat would to have your manifolds coated along with the up pipes and "Y"
being coated with something like what they do at https://www.jet-hot.com
By keeping the heat in the exhaust manifold and pipes you would also gain some pressure to drive the turbine
side of the turbocharger. The other option would be to just wrap the pipes and manifold.

Maybe I’m thinking this wrong, but the charged air coming off the turbo is hot already. That’s why it gets sent to the intercooler. Wouldn’t insulating the tubing keep more heat in?
Do you have any sensors showing those air temps?

Wrong side of the turbo. We are talking about the exhaust side.
Because it would drop under hood temps you would also see a
charge air temp decrease. IA1 and IA2 tells you the whole story
on how any under hood changes effect the charge air.
