Final answer:

Use a dash in the sentence as the words following the space redefine the words before it, emphasizing their relationship.


Explanation:

A dash should be used in the sentence.

The reason for this is that the words that follow the space redefine the words that come before it. In this case, the words 'high temperatures' are redefined by 'temperature performance.'

Using a dash helps to emphasize the relationship between the words in the sentence.
