I've been searching the forums and the internet the past few days trying to find an answer. And found folks with the same problem but no solution.So I decided to try my own thread.
Its a 99 gs300 w/ a 2jzge motor. So the problem is the car idles and runs nice and smooth. But when you try and rev past 3800-4k it hits what feels like a rev limiter. It has a p0441 code and also I changed the spark plugs, valve cover gasket and vvti pulley. And i've also cleaned the TB and the MAF.
Now im just thinking its a old vacuum line to the evap.
HELP Any info will help...thanks in advance

Are you doing this while your engine is cold? I do have a 00' gs400 with a stock engine, and That happens to me before the engine heats up, but once the engine warms up it revs all the way to the redline.
