lol ^^^

Nothing should have changed re: rev limit as a result of chanign the cambelt. Maybe a loose connection on a sensor, or ECU connection/relay connection under the ECU tray?

is it actually hitting a limiter? or loosing power could be a result of low back pressure, or as already said loose connection.

OR maybe the garage lowered your rev limiter to stop you killing your car :P
