And another good one to boot!

How exactly do you know it's in limp mode? Are you sure you didn't accidentally unplug your MAF or something like that? Have you tried using google or honda tech's search function?

Thats not what I meant. His post is Way to vague for anyone to really help him. I meant, but didnt type it out, that he needs to provide more info.

CEL/MIL?
If so what does the flash code tell you?

Try unplugging EGR and MAF once at a time, see if it goes away.

Limp mode is when the ecu does not go above 3k rpms.

Its pretty rare to get into limp mode, but most common cause is bad ecu.
