What happens after 3grand? Does your car die, stutter? What happens.

Have you done any mods to the ECU? Did you wire VTEC properly to the ECU?

does vtec kick in at 3k rpm? if it does then it is probably your vtec wires not being connected that is causing the problem.

you should check your ecu i had the same problem with my ls vtec i told my buddy to let me try his ecu on my car and it ran good but when we tried my ecu on his car it would go over 3 000 rpm so if one of your friends has a vtec ecu try theres on

The SCS connector is what you need to find, passenger side. Jump it will a paperclip and you'll be able to read the code

It is located above the ecu under the dash. It is a small two prong connector with two wires, the plastic part on mine is blue. It may be a different color I don't know
