My mates civic type r (the uk one) is losing top end power when you rev it out, it seems like it runs out of puff even before redline, from about 6000rpm that is.

the cars got about 5000km until next service.

anybody knows whats going on? thanks.

Could you provide a bit more information please?

Maybe a list of mods if he's done any?
Amount of km's he's done?

Has it always been like this?

Is he using the right fuel? choked fuel filter? Air filter?

Maybe he's also had one to many Angus burgers?
