Hey mate. We need to know what your max boost is and what your boost is at 100k's. Also an idea of EGT's too mate. If anything I would say your spool up is too slow, causing slight over fueling which may bring on higher than usual coolant temps. You manual or auto? If manual what gear were you in?

Shouldn't really have fitted it without an EGT gauge...
Try closing the needle valve to speed up the spool rate a bit.

Firstly, how do you know it is hitting 122°C, factory gauge will not point to that. So Scangauge perhaps? Is it just incorrect gauge setting because at that temp the engine will be cooked for sure.
Secondly, fitting Dawes and needle valve combo even if you set it wrong (read lower values) should never ever cause engine overheating to such highs full stop. If unplug the vacuum hose from the actuator and go for a drive, the only thing you will notice is lack of power and perhaps EGTs skyrocketing. If anything Dawes and needle valve combo is exposing the issue with cooling system because they makes the system power up and stay up more. In any case this just might be coincidence.
3" exhaust will not cause overheating for sure.
To me this sound like either fan not working correctly or radiator is blocked either internally or externally which would affect the engine fan.

Try with the air-con on and fan on two, that will kick in the fan for the condensor
and maybe eliminate the viscous coupling as the problem
I was struggling to see how a 3" system would cause over heating probs
