are you reving it in neutral or while in gear?
Some cars have a limiter while in neutral, but in gear, they can redline.

The VTEC code is because VTEC isn't hooked up. That's the fault it's detecting. I'm assuming that's what's making it limit to 5500 RPM, because above that is where VTEC would engage. All you should need is the right ECU for that engine.
