throwing any codes? did it set off the SES light? bad cat?
no, it would not have anything to do with your new 3" system, with stock s-pipe

yup its the rev limiter. all your doing is putting extra wear and tear on your engine when you rev that high anyways.

The computer limits how high you can rev the motor when you're not in gear to about 4000, if I remember correctly.

Throwing revs in park or neutral is kind of rice anyway...
