The further you push the car past 260 the faster and more harsh the ECU becomes trying to "protect" the engine. Reports by people on this forum's boards have said the engine has reduced (in extreme cases) all the way down to 2500RPM'S.

But yeah, no worries all, most sport cars do this right? WRONG! This has NOT been blown out of proportion. Reaching 220 degrees alone is about 8 over what normal oils want to be. 212 or less is a good number on most cars. You know what... For the Nay-sayers like you... I'm going to make a video right now showing how REAL this problem is!!! It will be up in the "video/media gallery" as soon as I can upload to either youtube or streetfire.
