Default rpm problem...
I just bought a 05 ap2. Also just did a oil change(mobile1 synth). Leaving work when i hit the gas where v-tech would normally kick in. it kinda felt and sounded like a rev limiter...now im new to the honda world so any help would be great...maybe a safety feature?when the motor isnt warmed up?

Yeah, it's a safety feature. Let the car warm up before trying to get on it.

you need 3 bars on the temp gage before the ecu will let you enter Vtec!

AP2 is indeed 4-6 bars, but that is Water temp. Oil takes a good 10-15 minutes to get up to temp.

Let her warm up before giving her the full monty.
