Have you put the original restrictor back in place?
have you tried disconnecting the battery for about an hour, then reconnecting, see if that "resets" the ECU?
May be worth a try before thinking more expensive

sounds like the car is in limp home mode.. do an ecu reset..

easiest way is leave battery disconnect overnight.

Sounds like you have burnt a piston or cracked a ring land.
