No- but I've got similar data for a 16vt.

Highway cruise is ~1400F
Idle ~900F
WOT, Max boost almost 1500F- don't exceed 1600 for any extended period.

Interestingly enough, with the probe placed at the convergence of the
manifold runners, it appears to go falsely high on a long WOT run-
research suggests that the turbine/manifold heat soaks and fouls up the
reading from the probe. (Which is annoying, since *true* high readings on
a long WOT run indicate real engine danger..)
