Question - does overheat damage reduce the top capable speed of the unit?

Damage has no effect, right up until the module breaks entirely.

Umm. Sure. If you want to look at it that way. Heat damage doesn't affect modules except that it measures how close they are to breaking entirely. If you want that to be eye candy, I suppose that's one interpretation.

Confirming the RPM gauge on my truck is only eye candy. Roll

It doesn't- to the contrary: overheating increases the top speed your AB puts out... until you break it, of course.
