In the UK we have E10 which is 95 and the v power 99. I put the 95 in this time not the 99 for some reason.
I don't know if its quincidence that now I am getting the limp mode and engine light. After a while. I can restart and it goes again for a while than happens again.

Could this be because I have not put the 99ron in
 
Your machine is designed to run on 91 Octane (95 RON) fuel with no more than 10% ethanol, so I would say that should not be your issue.

Did you maybe get bad fuel? Fill up with 99 and see if your problems go away.

Thanks I will do this tomorrow for the next run. Only other thing I have done is install a BOV for the supercharger, and replace a blown coolant pipe
 
Do you get a code on your display? I would check your clamps and hoses if you have added a BOV. The ECU has a tight A/F mapping based on MAP, Temp, and throttle position. If any of those inputs go out of range, on comes limp mode. If you have a hose leak for example, it will be often found at max throttle extended runs as the leak will impact total MAP.

I get nothing just the eml and lump mode. There is one pipe I am not happy about and not you have mentioned it I'm going to put the standard on mack on and also try that.
I will know if that has worked Wednesday or the 99ron fuel has worked as well. Has to be something or nothing as it was all fine till the BOV
