I actually have squirts at around 95F. He does self-regulate, and soon as he feels to warm, moves out of the direct beam, Or moves to half in, half out of the water.
For his basking bulb, it is just a standard household 60 Watt incandescent bulb. I have it in a desk lamp set-up to lean over onto the screen top. You can see this in previous photos of tank set-ups.
Anyways, I would recommend that you keep the turtles basking temp in the normal range, unless you already have the temp higher and your turtle self regulates. Otherwise your turt might bake!
