It ended up causing other issues, a weird idle at times for example, would surge. I replaced it and all these problems went away, the car never shut off at the track again.
I'm going to try wrapping heat shield around the PCM on both the TA and ACR. Won't know the effectiveness until June/July/Aug comes around.
The PCM itself generates heat and needs to dissipate it.
There is more outside heat load affecting the pcm than the heat internally generated by the pcm. On the flip side you would think SRT would account for this. As a side note, industrial electronics is UL listed for use where the ambient is 40C or less.
