i recently pulled about 6k and i have autometer phantom gauges. The temp outside was about 92 degrees and pulling grades i saw as high as 1100 and cruising was anywhere from 675 to 850 depending on boost. Unloaded i usually see about the same temps but a tad lower. Hope this helps

the max temp could be pretty high, but not good. lol a comfortable temp, for me, below 1000.
