the answer will vary from source to source.
but if i can remember most of the answers is 1350 sustained(such as pulling a grade), shorts spikes over that to pass a car or such, will not hurt things.

Freeing up your intakes with an aftermarket intake system will drop your temps a bit.

Mine dropped about 100 with a RamAirIII, but it is more definitive when modded (mine is stock).
