Aircraft
On the upwind for closed traffic at about 400 feet the aircraft started to vibrate and Cylinder Head Temperature (CHT) indications were about to go yellow. I took the controls and noticed the Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) temperatures were at 1;500 more specifically EGT indication number 3 and 4. I took the controls and asked to land [on opposite direction runway] and the tower allowed me to bring the SR-20 for full stop landing on [opposite direction runway].In the future I can learn to be more cautious on the potential for this event to happen and notice the signs maybe before rotation.
A Flight Instructor reported engine vibration and rising cylinder head and exhaust gate temperatures on climb out. A return to the field was initiated with a successful landing on the opposite direction runway.
