In a 94 (OBD1) there is a service connector under the passenger dash on the right side. Find it...stick a wire in both holes of that connector. Turn the key to 'on' and your dash CEL will blink. Count how many times it blinks and let us know.
Then...pull the ECU fuse for a good 10 minutes (its under the hood in the fuse box I believe). This will reset your ECU.
Fire it up...if it runs right until you boost and then starts acting up...the map sensor is seeing boost for some reason and you need to fix this.
Check your injector connections as well...one may have come loose.

Pull those codes. There is your answer.

He is most OBVIOUSLY in limp mode...everyone was saying "i guess you might be"
Other people were telling him to reburn his chip when he stated he was running the Hack.
Others were telling him how to read the code blinks for a OBD0 ECU when he stated he had a 94.

The other stuff you mentioned was pretty funny though.

Re: Car wont rev past 3000 Help.
souns like the same prob i had one time. my car ran good but then all of a sudden it started to act up and the AF guage was lean and kinda fanned across the display instead of how it usually moved. it was one of my injector plugs had come undone. check that.

Start off by getting the CEL codes and go from there. Check out the following link to find out how to get the CEL codes http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=682412&page=1
