unfortunatly there is no answer to that question as nobodies got the same setup meaning the temps can vary GREATLY. now wouldnt you want the temp that gives you best performance wise not "max turbo life temp".

now howard colman runs his at i believe 1460f under 14.7psi and 1550f above measured 1" from the engine mount flange in the manifold between the engine and turbo. he also has said in his setup he saw on average 300f difference between his normal pre-turbo spot and the post-turbo spot. he is also running twin t04s which i can guarantee is nothing like your setup so the only temps you can use would be the pre turbo temps as they would be closest to the same for comparison sake.
