For general lazy flying, I usually fly with around 90-95% pitch, 90-95% max. available power, and am competitive without straining the engine too much. Works even with rads closed if you keep the speed up. I don't see why the Spitfire XIV should be totally different from that, in particular if the map isn't a very hot one.
If the Spitfire XIV is as problematic as you make it sound, it might indeed be best to ask the HSFX crew for advice, or just other pilots what they do with the plane. In the worst case, there's a bug with the plane that they aren't aware of, and will be happy to fix it.
Might be worth a comment - rpm control (which you control with the pitch control) usually was manual on Spitfires, and only some planes of late variants carried an automation. Sounds like there's no automation on the Spitfire XIV as modelled by HSFX.
WW2 pilots were struggling with all you said in the midst of combat, it's one of the reasons the Kommandogerät of the Fw 190 is as noteworthy as it is.
To your question - there's no CEM intermediate in stock game, no easy way to do it for the user, and there are no plans to program something like this in the near future. What features do you miss with CEM off?
