My temps are extreme Hot running 240 or better and obvious reasons my motor is slowing down due to heat.

Any suggestions?

Take boost out?
Smaller Pinion?

I know its going to be hard by not looking at the car but....im stomped!
Check the end bell timing on the motor. The Novak might be set to 30'. Most Tekin motors are about 12-15' out of the box.
