Are we talking about intake temps at the MAS (stock ECU) or charge temps at the throttle body (AEM, etc)? Two completely different IAT values. I see temps in the 140s at the end of a drag run post intercooler, it's not uncommon. A better IC can keep that number a good bit lower. A cold air intake doesn't help significantly with this reading (post IC) since any drop in intake temp at the filter gets cut down by intercooler efficiency. Using typical values a 5C drop at the filter only works out to a 1C post IC.
