No protections, it's got a nice big FLI display (Zero-Ten scale, 10 is T/O power limit, and a red triangle above for the transient limit).
The Tq limit below Vy (65kts) is 103%, but you are able to pull through that up to 110% for a transient of 5 seconds without penalty. A horn comes on after 1.5s in the transient range to let you know you are there, and nothing on the aircraft would stop you from pulling beyond in order to avoid an accident.
