How hot is too hot?

Trying to get a feel for realistic intake and water temperatures I should be expecting for a turbocharged application.

I've only recently installed the turbo and have not yet done a track day. Dailly driving the temps seem high but i don't know what to expect..

Worst case I see intake temps +20C over ambient and water temps in the low 100sC (35C day, poor air in traffic). Saw water temps of 107C with short bursts of full revs on a 37C day.

At what point do I worry?
