Exactly. At about 4500 or so (been a while since I drove my girl's car) it really just started to pull and did all the way to 6500-7000. And most bolt-ons move the peak power to higher in the RPM range.

Did you check and make sure your tach is working right? hook up a different one to the engine and see if it gets the same RPM

First thing I would do is hit up probetalk.com and mx6.com and make sure there is a rev limiter. Then you will be positive whether it IS a rev limiter or not. From there just ask them what they do to eliminate it if there is in fact one.
