This may come from a weird angle but make sure you don't have a cheap chipped ecu. And double check EVERY bolt and connection in and around that motor. If it wasn't built with ARP head studs i wouldn't take it over the CRV rev limit. If you haven't noticed by now you really don't need to rev it that high anyway.
