Default New 525 efi overheating

I have a new eliminator speedster with twin 525 efis. At 5250 rpm the engine is warming up past 190 and going into guardian. My water pressure doesn't get over 24 psi. Is this the problem. Manual says 20 min 40 psi max. Thinking about spacer for drive. Any suggestions

Drive height or your impeller is on its way out.. look at the bottom of the drive and look for cavitation burns,if theirs some present then your drive may be to high
