The thing about intake temps is they can be over 200 degrees and the coolant and oil temps be fine. Unless you have a separate gauge, ob2 bluetooth and app, or computer program you cannot see intake temps. I once was lapping my ZL1 and I could feel it was loosing power to timing retard but all my stock gauges looked fine so I kept driving. I was not on a public session so I had been out on the track for close to an hour and my car just died with no warning. When I got it towed back to the pits it showed maximum IAT 2 (intake temp) had been reached so it shut the car down.

I was running about 15 pounds of boost through the 1.9. If you are running a 2.3 kit at less than 8 pounds of boost you should be fine. I can always hear and feel the knock. If you get an aeroforce gauge set, app or dashlogic type program you can observe both the intake temp and the knock retard the computer is giving your car. If not you are kind of in the dark. Since my 2016 has been on turbos I have seen a check engine light a few times for high intake temps. I don't know if your car will get hot enough to turn on this light. I also do not know for sure if the tune that comes with the supercharger disables this light. But when the CEL comes on in my 2016 it does not put the car in limp mode or anything else. It continues to run fine with the engine light. The light will automatically turn itself off after 24 hours if you don't reset the code manually.

I think you will be fine but if the ambient temps are high and you push the car for a while the intake temps can get pretty high. Knock is the big risk and if your tune and fuel octane are able to deal with it your car will be fine.
