Going WOT problem

so in the last couple days i have noticed that starting off in first...

whether it be 2k to redline 3k to redline or just a dead stop to redline the car will rev out right at 5100k every time.... right at vtec

When this happens it makes me lunge forward like im slamming on the brakes and the motor gets really loud...

Any suggestions???

What do you mean "rev out"? Does it hit a limiter and does not go beyond 5100 rpm, or does it spike up to 7k and hit that limiter? I'm guessing it is limiting right at the vtec engagement point and causing you to jerk back and forth because it's doing a fuel cut-off. Does it happen in other gears too?

Took it to Acura and it was that I was a half quart low on oil which was keeping btwc from engaging cause of low oil
