I have to think that it is an ECU limp mode thing. I don't understand why the CEL is not getting set. It may be something with the position feedback from the OMP (that is the usual culprit).
Try unplugging the IAT sensor while the engine is running and see if the CEL comes on. I am pretty sure that it should.
