Default Car wont rev past 7200

my b16 will not rev past 7.2k it goes into vtec, has plenty of oil, there are no dents on the oil pan. as soon as it hit 7200 it just seems to hit a brick wall. what is going on with her?

cut the carpet out from under the pedal and then pound the floor pan down so the pedal will travel further down that should do it...
