When you accelerate you are bringing in fresh air which will cool the intake charge. That's why the charge air (IAT2's) decrease when you press the gas. It isnt because the intercooler pump turned on. The intercooler pump is constantly running, and circulating the fluid to help remove heat from the charge. No fresh air for the intercooler/heat exchanger to cool will cause it to heat up no matter what.
I dont think you completely understand IAT2's and how it all works.

well when ur cruising and let off the gas ur engine is no longer under load which means the intake is doing what??? nothing but sitting there LOL but once u get back under load it cools it back down...its common sense man

All that is showing is your IAT2's coming down when you accelerate. Which they will.

The pump is always running, and circulating the fluid under load and under no load.
Go out to your car, start it up, wait 10 sec, and grab one of the hoses for the heat exchanger/intercooler system. You will feel the coolant circulating through the system. If you have the stock fill neck you should be able to actually see the coolant moving.

I will say this one more time.

The hptuners showed me it stayes on thought. What about that?
Also clear hose will be sweet. What hoses are they? Can they withstand heat?

I heard you and I respect you knowledge but I really think I could be right on this one. Dont take it wrong. this is interesting to me and I really want to get to the bottom of this WITH you guys. I will record my next multi meter and test light test and I will show when the ecu send power to the pump. The pump cant operate with no power, so I will show when the power to the pump kicks on or off, whether it be 10 secs. after the car starts like you say or under a load like I say. No one (not even me LOL) will be able to argue about it once that test is done. It will prove one way or the other.
There is nothing wrong with testing things, and learning about your car.

Like the others have said, your iat2 dont drop because the pump turns on under load, its the air coming through the intake. Like seriously, your temps changed so quickly, how in the hell would temps change that quick just by the pump moving the coolant. Just cuz the pump moves the coolant, isnt going to change the temps that quickly.
