350 Mag Mpi, Bravo 3
2007 350 mag mpi. Bravo 3. 225 hrs. Under 2500 rpms runs at 165-175 all day. No issue. Over 3k rpms, overheats, alarm sounds within a minute. New raw water pump, new thermostat, new manifolds and elbows. Hooked up Vessel View mobile. Attached is screenshot of my readings. .8 psi water pressure? I’m guessing that’s way too low?! Bravoitis?? Thoughts? Thank you

.8 isn't way low. Could have bravoitis, or that bronze water pump is all scored up
 
If overheating above 3000 rpm's; usually the Bravo choke. Water tube in transom is choked down restricting water flow at higher rpm's. A lot of times it'll burn out the new impeller. Either update to new hard tube or block off and install a thru hull water intake scoop with valve.
