Re: car's max speed 80, if i go beyond, it will cut off when slowing down
Okay, but is it 80 KM/h or 80 MP/h makes a lot of difference
At 80 KM/h ( 50 MP/h ) 2000 RPM looks pretty normal... maybe it's your fuel feed? does it get (enough) fuel? enough fuel pressure? clogged air filter maybe?
I have had issues with my ICV, and have an automatic too, looks very strange as it totally cuts out.. cleaning it solved it for me ( use a bit of Diesel to clean it, leave it in a bowl overnight, well that's what I did )

Will the engine rev to red line (in sport mode) in the first couple of gears?
Assuming it will, it could be poor fuel flow, or poor air flow within those respective circuits.
McOlaf's suggestions are very wise and it would be worth it to check further.
Replacing your fuel filter, and air filter would both be good starting points.
