There is no actual data because generally people are astute enough to know better than to do this by comparing the list of pros and cons.
Pros:
-"looks good"
- Small increase in radiator efficiency
Cons:
- No airflow through the intercooler for it to do its job
- Increased IATs
- Increased chance of detonation
- ECU will pull timing
- Less consistent power

I've done a lot of research on AWICs and am very interested in them. It has been done on Subarus (in older Legacys from the factory no less, and some gens of Toyota 3S-GTEs), but it's another idea that got shat on when I brought it up.

If you have your mind set on no scoop, then you would need a meth kit to address the problems others have mentioned.
Innovative Tuning had a a thread going on Nasioc about their car running without a tmic @ below ambient temps on meth.
