If it was mapped to an induction kit and 7b plugs and you have put the airbox back on along with 6b plugs then that could be the problem.

Take the spark plugs out, makesure gaps are right, and are all in correctly.
I would also check coil packs for any cracks and general condition.
If it wont rev past 4000 then it must be something quite obvious.
Also make sure your maff and air box is all sound.
should be one of them mate.
Hope that helps.

Sounds like a sensor. You need to get it on a diagnostic machine, that will give you
an error code which should tell you the problem.

Did you put the full 5 litres of oil in? thats too much

scott181

Should only be about 4 or 4half liters mate

As above, maybe too much oil and causing 'misting' of the MAF wire which would cause fueling issues.

I could be wrong and it is sth else - but pretty sure should only be 4.5 Ltrs at max.
