Here are some recent archaeo-linguistic articles confirming the association between Proto-Indo-Iranian and the Sintashta Culture.

Then there are of course contacts with the Uralic languages. The recent study of Indo-Iranian loanwords in Uralic is:

Attempt on more resolute layering of the early loanwords suggests that there are Early, Middle, and Late Proto-Indo-Iranian loanwords in Uralic, as well as Proto-Iranian loanwords in different Uralic pre-dialects:

Early Uralic speech area can be located to the north from the Sintashta Culture, in the Central Ural Region, where the Koptyaki Culture followed the Ayat Culture.
