Nope. That's the rev limiter. It basically prevents you from blowing up your engine. You can get a performance PCm (although I am not sure about your year) that will move the rev limit up.

If you didn't want a rev limiter should've gotten a 1st gen ATX.

I've got a 99 ATX and I can rev the engine to 8k.

Although I don't do it because it's dangerous. I found out on accident one day.

4K sounds low though. the rev limiter ahould be higher than that. the limiter should be around 6000-6500.
