Wont rev passed 5200 RPM Hey guys, hopefully I’m in the right section, I would like to get some ideas on to possibilities for the following;
My Camaro is a 1998 Z28 M6 with 2500 miles on new rebuild.
I went to the track and wouldn’t rev passed 5200 RPM
I feel great power until I get to 5200RPM
It feels like when it hits the rev limiter. The only recent things I have done is install TSP Catted Y-pipe and Magnaflow cat-back, besides that I haven’t touched her since dyno day.
I checked all plugs wires, coil wires, injector wires (to make sure they are connected correctly, and ground connections. Went for another drive and still acts the same.
What could cause this?
I forgot to say I have no CEL

When was dyno day, and was anything done to the tune then?

Check your park / neutral rpm limit in your by gear limiter table in the fuel -- cutoff section
Also check your drivetrain abuse rpm

Ok guys so I finally got around to working on my Camaro. I replaced spark plugs, spark plug wires, crank sensor, cleaned filter, and MAF, and chees cats.
Still same issue, so I took it to the tuner, and he is telling me that the gauge RPMs are off from the gauge. I thought it was weird, because idle RPM is fine.
What can cause this? What fixes? I tried a quick search but found only stuff on swaps
