1000 C pre-turbo is not abnormally high for any turbo engine at 17 psi boost, I actually would have expected higher (there are diesels making more than that).

(The continuous temperature increase is probably from several factors, heating of the rotor/housing surface, increased turbine back pressure, and less time to burn the fuel in the chamber at higher revs.)
