100 degree higher intake temps will raise combustion temps quite a bit. For the same amount of power out your cylinders have less air and egr to heat. It therefore heats it even more. Your putting the same energy into less mass that has already been heated 100 degrees. You'll probably end up with combustion temps 250 to 350 higher than normal when all is said and done.
