190f is fine.

anything under 205f is perfectly fine and safe....

Is rad fan turning on at or about 190degrees F?, if not it should be.

As mentioned, make sure read fan is turning in the right direction, pulling air through the rad.

How much of the rad is covered by the inter-cooler?

Is it clean between the inter-cooler and the rad?

Hint, never shut off an overheating engine, pull over and let idle till it cools down, if temp. still increases when idling then shut the engine off.94
