Default 1999 s2000. engine cuts out at 7000 RPM

Engine is cuting out on my S . Car is warmed 3 bars, did the map wack, cleaned the IACV.......... oil is full. Replaced the Vtech solonoid gasket and everything was fine. Just all of a sudden it started doing this..... MAP sensor is also cleaned ... the place it goes in is also cleaned. Read all the forums every where..... did everything suggested ..... Car is stock with only 62K miles. ..
appreciate any info ...

Could be the ecu itself. Happen to me once. Swapped out the ecu for a new one and fixed the issue. Mine was a 2005, would cut out around 6k I think.

Will swap the MAP and ECM today ....

Could bad fuel be the probleM? Car was in storage for 2.5 moths with a full tank of 98 octane... but no fuel octane booster....

You aren't getting a CEL code, after the engine cuts off at 7K?

no codes what so ever. Swapped the MAP sensor with another .. still has the same problem...... look like fuel is getting g cutoff at 7000 RPM ....
went to a few pros... they all were scratching their heads ......
What could it be ... ??

Double check the connector to the MAP sensor... the later ones added a zip tie to hold it secure. The only high rpm stutter I ever had was that connector rattling. I just added a zip tie to mine.

this was the first thing I tried ... had no effect ... Car still feels like it hit a wall at 7000RPM. It's just like hitting the 9k rev limiter but at 7K. ....

Stock rev limiter cuts the fuel, if it feels and behaves the same as that you should start investigating there.
Injectors, fuel pump and filter.

I have seen ONE car cut out at 7k, and spark plugs cured it.
