I imagine that the heat soak for the engine running on the dyno (especially for the non-rls intercooler) is greater than if you're on the street in normal driving or on the track with greater air flow. So would the real world/track gain be less than the 26 HP stated?

That difference only gets greater with heat soak, because the stock intercooler heat soaks far worse and far faster. Results will be posted as soon as I get the data, that will show the trends better than I can describe. It was impressive.
