I am planning to track my car and if the temps are that high in normal driving mode, I will fry the turbos within the year in 30 minute balls out runs.
My Audi for instance, factory turbos had very thin weak shafts. The temps rise, oil breaks down and the shafts wobble and vibrate themselves to destruction.
