My guess is that AIT is getting too high. A decent OBD scanner will read AIT.
You are bang on! Had mine on a dyne for 5 days straight and we saw a significant drop in performance when AIT went above 60 (almost 20-30 hp loss).

if your sitting in traffic or city driving the car, you will always be above 70. as hard to believe as it is, in order to keep this motor cool you need to keep it moving.

Even adding an oil cooler will not fix this issue, the engine can only do so much when the temp of the air in the engine bay is so high.

Get an OBDII reader and monitor the intake temp and just like mentioned above, I'm sure you will see the power loss come in after the AIT hit 60 or higher.
