1. Check your engine coolant temperature sensor if your engine has experienced over-heating on one or two occassion! It may need to be changed or else, it will be running I open loop continously! (I've experienced same on my toyota camry 4cylinders)

2. Ensure you are using the right/recommended tyres

3. Are your oxygen (o2) sensors still connected (cos our kazeem mechanics do cut them off! They did so to me and were like it doesn't matter)

4. Is ur radiator fan running directly or the thermostatt is still working? If the thermostatr has been removed, u might want it returned.

5. You may need to service your injector nozzles by using injector cleaner. Just 1 bottle for a full tank.

Before you do any of these, please, scan your vehicle.

Well, I'll pause here and allow the professionals in the house like gazzuz, ikkenna and the likes to do their job!
