The recommended path is to add proper supporting mods (as other stated above) then an ECU reflash, piggy back or aftermarket ECU.

Speedlimit..

so... you say if outside temp....exceeds the setpoint you get fuel cut.. but you say that as temp lowers we will see more fuel cuts? by exceed you mean the temp setpoint is a min rather than a max?

fuel cuts at 7300 RPM. But ECU Boost cut is probably doing all this. You need a AEM EMS or something similar to get rid of this. even boost controller will do this, electronic one.
