What boost level?
With 10psi boost you'd have something wrong to be reading over 100C in the airstream. The housing itself with probably be a little cooler than the air coming out.
With 15psi boost you'll be over 100C, up to 150C in unfavourable conditions.
The "something wrong" could be a hot air intake, damaged compressor wheel or turbo working outside the map the makers intended.
All these things result in more heat in the airstream.
I appear to be the only one here with any real measurements.
