Default Need help car runs well cold when it warms up doesnt.

i have a 91 DA , with a b16a in it, built N/A, just recently its been running really bad. when the cars still cold it runs fine but as soon as my temp gauge goes up and the cars warming up, my car starts to run like complete ****. and it feels as if im pulling a something, will hardly go over 25mph. ive checkd the timing, my plugs wires, distributor cap/rotor everything and i cannot figure out what it is... Can someone please help me ASAP, ive been w/o a car now for 2 weeks because of this... the car will actually stall once its warmed up if im driving it like this. but it will rev out, doesnt stop at 4k like if it were in limpmode. but i do have hondata stage 3.. so i dont know if thats affecting limp mode. but again it has been running fine this just happend about 2 weeks ago. please help thank you.

Check/replace your coolant temp sending unit on the side of the head, it may be dead..
