Limp mode doesn't kick in until 280F, I've experienced it first hand. Engine RPM's held at 5000rpm max, basically feels like someone lowered the rev-limiter. There is a stage 2 limp mode at 300F where it will cut RPM's to 3500 and cut power as well, I've never hit this.

Prior to that if you're losing any power it is purely due to the engine pulling timing due to a hot (low density) intake charge.
