Just random curious question.

after letting my car run in the drive way for like 20mins or so

should the tpi alluminum plenum be very hot like cant touch hot?

im guessing the car would be hotter from just sitting and running instead of being driven and having the air passing by help keep it cool.

You're fine. That's normal. The whole underhood area is 200+ degrees.
