Engine Overheat Indicator - Water Pump?

Got the yellow Engine Overheat indicator on the highway (normal driving, 50 degree weather) which promptly turned red and killed my engine power. Pulled over, turned it off and once i restarted it let me make it all the way home (45 min). Got back and uninstalled my Cobb and read the codes. Just one related to timing (issue for another day).

Figured i'd be good to go for my drive back from the Packers Bears game at 12AM that night now that the tune was uninstalled but the same thing happened again in 25 minute increments.

Oil temp was normal between 230-250. Did some research and this kind of stuff seemed to happen a lot on the N54s and was attributed to either shit water pump or thermostat. Figured our cars had this figured out by now.

What do you guys think??
