I have a Vortech Supercharger and was also worried about high temp however at my last road course (Thunderhill Raceway) which is a 3 mile road course, with a 116F day, running hard for 20 milnutes straight, my oil temp was 243 and water was 253. My auto trans temp was 220.
So now I don't think I am worry anymore.

With A/C in traffic , I'll see 220-230 on the water , 230-240 on the oil .
With no A/C in traffic the car runs cool , 190-200 water 210-220 oil .
Cruising easy on the highway car is 190 water 220 oil , with or without A/C .
Driving it hard , well , I usually let it cool down when the oil hits 260-270 , but it doesnt take much . Water temp is always cooler then oil .

My oil temps run about the same.
