Default rev limiter

The ls in my hatch wont go pass 3000 rpm without the rev limiter kicking in. The car shakes and stuters really bad .Ive checked all my sensors and even tried a few ecu's Nothing seems to work.Any ideas would be great.

How did you check all your sensors, and did you also check all the wiring for the sensors, and did you also check that at the sensors have sensor power and/or sensor ground or whatever else they are supposed to have?

the 3000RPM limp home rev limiter usually means a major fault, so it shouldn't be too hard to track down.

Check the distributor thats usually what causes a rev limit that low.
