Default ENGINE HELP ASAP!

My friends del sol has a b16 chipped ecu blah blah. Anyway it wont rev past 5000 rpm's. It drives fine otherwise it just tops off and wants to quit when it hits 5000... What are possible causes of this??? Fuel delivery??? ECU??? The car also would not pass deq because it was running way rich (hydrocarbons).

Any thoughts???

Yeah, almost sounds like it's just running on a basemap.

What EMS is running the car?
