it didnt....and never has never done that in any large front mount intercooled cossie ive been in!! quite the opposite in fact! i9ve seen charge coolers take time to stabilise back after being saturated but never intercooled cars....i can see that maybe if i was to shut the throttle, stamp the brakes and stand idling it would soak it to death yes but as i said i backed off and then cruised along (throttle part open not on boost at say 100mph) i.e. air passing through the cooler thats now cooling the air thats being slowly pulled through it
