I personally don't believe the mapping was done to prevent the cars being 'faster than a ferrari; I suspect it is purely a reliability and environmental decision by Maserati to not seek max BHP from the engine.
It was probably to keep the warranty claims down by destressing the compenents. As we all know the value of a Maserati warranty....and they don't want to feed any of the urban myths around Maserati reliability that still exist even though it's been 25 years plus since De Tomaso was near Modena.
