that looks like a rev limiter issue, but im sure you checked that already using other ecus, have you changed out your harness at all?

Re: Whats wrong with my car! now with VID!!
have your tried changing the iat/ect/ wiring for those sensors??( think i have an extra one if you ned it) the ecu might be reading the engine as cold and wont let you rev it up.
maybe you have ftl setup wrong?
maybe the tach is off? my redline is 7500 but my tach only shows it as 6500, its way off.
you say its only at wot, does that mean you can still revi higher than 6k if your not flooring it? have your tried it in neutral?
also, maybe you have low oil pressure, bad pump or something. My girls gsr wont rev past 6-6.5k when the oil is low(bad way of finding this out btw) and itll do this w/o throwing a code or oil pressure light
also you can just throw your car off a cliff. that solves a lot of issues.
