I really hope you get pulled over and:

A) Get you license taken away for doing 130 MPH in a 65 zone (whatever your zone is).

B) Get 500 hours of community service cleaning and changing Urinal cakes in men's bathrooms.

C) Get a $1,000 fine for being a jackass.

D) Get humiliated for everyone to see.

It probably lost power because you probably hit redline on your 5th gear.

Isnt that actually a little low? Anything over 100mph is a federal and thats a much bigger fine. And if its racing good luck.

My D16Y8's speed limiter is about 120 mph. As soon as you hit it your ECU cuts the fuel to the engine so it's perfectly normal that your car did that. If you get a P28 ECU, you can put a chip on it the cuts the speed limiter out...

hopefully you find a away to go past 130 because its so necessary to do so (sarcastic). dont drive like that unless you want to get into some serious trouble.
