04 Acura TL 6 speed wont rev past 2000 rpms

I just got done replacing the engine in my 2004 Acura TL 6spd with a 120k mile donnor. The car started and ran fine no engine lights. I took it for a drive, got a mile down the road and it started not wanting to go. It would bog down. 4000rpms just wouldn't go, so I towed it home. It still has no error codes and wont rev past 2000 rpms but idles fine. I can't figure it out. If anyone has any ideas I would greatly appreciate it, thanks.
