Did your Check Engine Light ever go off?

Assuming it's still on, there's a nice little FAQ sticky at the top of this forum, which links to a thread that explains how to read the CEL by using a $0.01 paperclip. You don't have to trust some random guy @ a parts shop.

take a pic of the sticker on the ecu and post some pics.

That may be the problem why you are redlining so ealry.
