Default Redline Problem!!!!!!!

alrite i have a 2000 honda civic si and wen i redline it in second gear it redlines at what it is exposed to but then in third gear it redlines at 7k and in fourth at about 6k. the day it started doing this idling at like 3k but would go back down to regular after a few seconds so we tried using my friends ecu to see if that would make it stop idling weird and it did so we put the regular ecu on it and that when it started to redline all messed up.
