I can't seem to get to cruising speed without over temping the engine. Best I can get is maybe 100 indicated and 112 GS and even then the TOT is in the yellow. keeping the TOT in the green gets me around 90 or 95kts. Suggestions?

What is your outside temperature and pressure altitude? While a sporty helo, the MD is still a single engine helicopter.
