Default Overheating

Hi all,

Headed up into the mountains this weekend my D24T over heated. I was blowing about 19 psi and WOT in top gear. My EGT was around 1100.
I don't have my liquid/air intercooler hooked up yet. I suspect packing a lot of really hot air in, is what causes the heat to grow rapidly.
Any other thoughts on how to address it?
Other than cooling the intake air more, I can't help but think that I need to back off boost to keep the temp down.
I also blew the end cap off of the larger intake manifold. when I tear it down to hook up the intercooler - I'll have someone weld a plate over that end.
