Maybe it's because we were an English colony until just 119 years ago and they love eccentrics in England, but I also think the world would be a less interesting place without them.
Is it possible that the ECU is starting to detect detonation at those elevated temps and triggering limp mode?
On the subject, there's a new contraceptive pill for men. It's quite large and you put it in your shoe.
It makes you limp.
When my wife's car popped a turbo coolant hose, they gave us a loaner for the full 2 weeks it was off the road waiting for parts.
Your dealer is a bit of a w⚓ Mr Dog.
I did full front, and hood back to the rear edge of the vent. I didn't do lower rear guards and rockers as I thought the plastic trim will protect the paint. It has so far.
The tyre shop will probably spin up the bare wheel to see if it's running true or out of round.
But new wheels and rubber does sound tempting.
And you can sell the originals as a set if they're OK.
I did my 4 year apprenticeship on the job. The only clasroom stuff was three 1 week sessions year at the local Tech institute to learn the finer parts like theory, dyno work, welding, fabricating and such.

My wife and I have dozens of CD's between us, most are on I Tunes. But we mostly listen to Spotify because it's so convienient, especially on holidays and road trips.
Quality with lossless is fine for us.
I sold my last bike in '23, I waited to see how much I missed it, and it wasn't enough.
Rode for 35 years from age 15 to 71 with some breaks away.
But I don't think a car comes close, not enough adrenaline surges. 😁

It wasn't as protective as a proper bar behind the seats, but it did save a guy in our MX5 club who rolled his on track.
He did have helmet on.
