Default 95 EG4/D15b2 engine (EDM) - Bogging out at high RPM

So.. i have a 95 EG, with a B15b2 engine in it. (88-91 engine?)
Now first it allready had a blown out head gasket when i bought it. (only 300 euro's for it, so i'm cool with that).

Replaced it, incl: timing belt, waterpump, sp cables, sp's, Fan switch, intake gasket, exhaust gasket and so on.

I also put in a CAI, so i would get a little more power. Plus it's a dualpoint (as most may know about a b2, just thought i'd put it in just in case).

Now the problem is this.. Whenever i step on the gas full throttle.. This is when the bogging out starts:
  • 1st gear: around 5.5k rpm
  • 2nd gear: around 5.5k rpm
  • 3rd gear: around 4.5k rpm
  • 4th gear: around 4k sometime's 5k rpm
  • 5th gear: around 5k rpm

From there on just pretty much stops and goes down in rpm if i keep the throttle pressed.

Now as i said.. it had a blown out head gasket. But this is no longer the case. It's all closed up, no more white clouds, no more loss of cooling liquids and so on..

All i can really think of what could actually be the problem, is maybe the injectors or the oil filter (don't know why this comes up, but it does).

Now if it is the oil filter (wich i will replace probably this weekend). I'm cool with it..

But what if it's the injectors?
Does this mean it does'nt get enough fuel?
What kind of injectors would i have to put in then?
Are the injectors expensive?

Could it be that the fuel pump is clogged up?
If so, is it expensive to replace it, or can i just clean it out?

Sorry for the long post, i thank you guys in advance!

Verify the engine. Is it a D15b2?

What ECU is in the car?

Yes it's a D15b2. or at least, the engine tell's me it is. it says D15b2 @ the stamp under the head. Original ECU. Engine is except for the CAI completly OEM.

Start by posting pictures of the ECU and its label and connectors.

Do CEL codes blink from the CEL or from an LED on the ECU?

So i didnt have time to make the pictures yet. Though last night after i went to a show with my cousin the CEL finaly started lighting again. Made her film this miracle to see what it was and if i see this right, it's the O2 sensor? Is it possible that my car would start bogging at high rpm's because of this?

So i still don't really have an answer. When i pull out the O2 sensor the bogging get's less. But i still feel a lot of power should be in there, and i still can't get over the 5.5k rpm.

So here is what seems to be working for me.
I pulled out the O2 sensor (ofcourse just intill i have a new one). Also i took off the old muffler and look at that. It stopped bogging. :/ So i made my own custom tailpipe (no more muffler, just a pipe). Now it goes through all gears as it should (i think). Plus it has a nice sound I will make a vid soon.

So here is as promised a little video:


This is what it actually looks like And yes it's starting to rust allready. Yes the towhook is going to come off and yes i know there's a LPG cap in the bumper (No LPG installation installed anymore though.)
