On an RST 62° is not good. Thats the point that your ECU will retard the Ignition Timing.
50° + is not good for power.
I would say that if you can see around 30-40° under full Boost then you have a good cooling set-up.

At 70deg on a Cossie the ECU starts cutting back various things like timing and boost...
