I have no idea.What’s the IAT after the intercooler?
Duct from behind the foglight to the MAF?
I'm on speed density so I measure my IATs closer to the throttle body so sorry about misunderstanding.

Simply because it is trapping the heat inside.I can usually touch the pipe after a night of driving with the exhaust wrap on
Wait?, you're using a MAF, and your worried about IATs.....Priorities.
I assumed you already had the cold air intake. So you're on stock piping and everything?On the to do list is:
electronic boost control
Water injection
Speed density
Cold air intake
And 107*f IAT on a 70*f day will not do!
Are you already on DSMlink V3? If so, adding SD and EBC is simple and well worth it.
Here's a handy site for calculating changes in air temp. If you were to drop your pre-turbo AITs from 107 to 70 deg. ambient, you'd only see a reduction in post-IC temps of about 10-15 degrees.

Regarding keeping it straight, I'd probably look at the 30 year old chassis bushings first
