when you say bogs at 7k.. what happens? are you sure the ECU doesnt just have a low rev limiter?

i'm pretty sure you're just hitting your ecu's fuel cut off. You could swap the ecu like you said and get a higher rev limit, but unless you have some engine upgrades to go with it, i don't see the point. Your cams are probably out of breath over 7k anyways.
