max Intake Air Temp 143 F (is that normal?)

Is it possible I'm not giving the car time to reach full boost? Surely it would before 60MPH?
base it on your rpm's. did you hit redline? you will hit peak boost usually at the top of 3rd gear but you should be real close at the top of 2nd gear, around 90mph or so.

143F peak temp on a 80 degree day after driving an hour is not bad at all.
