According to the info I have, the 9-5 Aero has a rated top speed of 240 km/h. I don't think there is a general problem with the Viggens topspeed, since it has a pretty low aerodynamic resistance (Cw = 0.28) and 230hp should be plenty for a car with that weight and wind resistance to reach 245-250 km/h.
As for protecting the engine, that engine can deliver 300 hp without problems with only new software and a sports exhaust. The T7 system should give 230 hp under almost any conditions be it high altitude or hot weather.
With 196 hp dynoed I'd say your Viggen isn't performing as it should.
