That I know of our cars do not do this, but im not 100%. Being as thou there is fuel pressure at all levels of cruising, engine braking, idle. and WoT I would be left to think that our injectors do not "turn off". I know some economy 8 cylinders do this such as the tahoe but it only shuts off half the injectors while crusing so that it essentialy only waists as much as a 4 cylinder.

Well considering that you were stopped, the intake is sucking all the hot air from inside the engine bay. Add to that the no air is passing infront of/on top of your intercooler, it is basicly just sucking in hot air and pushing it into your motor with no way of being cooled. This is a normal occurance and as sson as you begin to move that cooler ambient air enters the engine bay and flows on the intercooler the temps will begin to drop.
