If it is a stock engine, you are reaching the limit of the valve springs and cam. Also the ECU is programmed to abruptly cut the fuel to the engine around that point to reduce the risk of damage.

it really depends what engine u have if its somethin like the d15b7 then thats really close if not at the fuel cut off point ive never gotten mine that high but its an auto. but if u have a z6 or y8 of other 1.6 then u should be able to rev freely to around 7200
