I run my QT's at the same temp as the ST.

does raising the temp up to 82 help speed the cycle and remove ich faster in a QT?

Higher temp is suppose to accelerate the ich cycle .. but higher temps may stress the fish.

Also .. in most cases rushing doesn't buy you anything .. many would argue that fish s/b QT/d for at least 4 weeks anyways and if your show tank has ich many would suggest that remain fallow for 5 weeks.
