Anyone with TMIC has heatsoak?

I'm just wondering. I haven't experienced any audible knock on my car with the heat getting into the 100 degree range, but I have noticed a decrease in power. It could be the ecu pulling timing because of heatsoak, or it could just be the hot weather. Can't be sure.
FWIW, I have installed the intercooler sprayer on my car and run it for a few seconds at a light. I hooked up a wrx heatshield which seems to have helped lower underhood temps more than I thought it would. Finally, I'm only running around 1bar right now.
Just wondering if anybody's experienced audible knock due to the weather, possibly caused by heatsoaking their TMIC.
