I have a 1994 civic cx h/b i just purchased with a d16z6 engine. It also has the si/ex instrument gauge cluster and 17" tenzo r rims with lopro yok tires. For some reason once i rev past 6k i lose power and it gets real hard for the engine to rev higher which forces me to shift. I am trying to figure out why this is. My engine supposedly has about 77k miles and i used to have a 93 si and it went happily to 7250. What could be the reason for me not being able to rev as high as this vtec engine should? i have full cat back exhaust with a stock intake but removed air silencer. The engine doesnt knock, burn oil, or give general keys to make me think the engine could be half shot.

Did you check the ecu for any codes? Try that first.
