This doesn't seem to make sense to me. Why would turning the defog on (for example) increase the ITT? You're extracting more air prior to combustion. I would assume the EDM would react with a corresponding drop in fuel flow (to keep the fuel/air mixture roughly stoichiometric), resulting in less energy released during combustion and a lower ITT.
This is specifically for a PT6A, where the bleed air for ECS is tapped off the P3 port, but I assume the theory holds for most engines.
