The golden rule when flying US planes against Japanese planes:

DO NOT TURN WITH THEM.

Climb well above them, then make a diving pass at them. Don't turn too much during the pass. If you don't kill them (zoom) climb up again and go for another pass. Keep in mind that you're much faster in dives and level flight. The P-38 also climbes pretty fast, but I still wouldn't try to outclimb a zero.
You can turn with them just fine above 200mph. But you only want to turn while you can pull lead. Once the Zero pulls ahead of your piper then you want to break off and shallow power climb out. The P-38 out climbs the Zero with ease btw. It also out dives it with ease. Its obvious its much faster.
