I can attest to that...when I first got my turbo kit on I used to watch my IAT sensor all the time through some OBDII sofware. With no rain on a nice night I would get temps in the 80 and with a little rain on a comperable night the would drop almost 10 degrees!

Turn your AIR-AIR into a WATER-AIR intercooler! We all know those work better.
My honda loved it in the rain...well other then no traction.
