Default 03 civic si - p1259 revs limited at 4k

Hey all

I was wondering if i can get some info/help with an issue. I was driving home tonight in my civic that i had bough 2 months prior. The CEL light kicks on on my way home while on cruise control. I pulled to a red light and when taking off, the car is rev limiting at 4000 rpm. I had also noticed that lately when giving it throttle it seems like it pukes and then takes off. Puking lasts all of 3/4 a second.

I pulled in the driveway and hooked up a pocket obd2 scanner and i get 1 code, p1259. I loosely checked Google for the issue and then went and checked the oil. It is full. I had to put half a quart in about 2 weeks ago. Something about VETEC

Anyone else have this issue? Insight or anything to add?

Thanks
