Has the car been tuned by a previous owner or anything like that to your knowledge?

try doing it when the car is moving in neutral. you may very well have a 2 step on your car if it was previously modded, but need more info to really get an idea of whats goin on

That could be somewhat possible, but a longshot for that to be the problem. What mods does the car have? Have you gotten any CEL's?

If you are getting a maf code then you need to start there. I'm thinking the car was modded before you bought it and turned back to stock.

I had a car in the shop with a similar issue, wouldnt rev past 5000 rpm while driving, but would stopped in neutral. It ended up being crappy gas. I replaced the fuel and it was back to normal. I had noticed a high knock count.
The car was an acura, but just throwing it out there. If you have a CEL you need to repair this issue first.

were you moving when you reved it because the 2-step is speed activated
