Does it have upgraded valve spring as well? If so then by all means take it to 5k with the proper ecu..

if not play it safe and do not go over the stock rev limit..

You'll need a standalone ECU and there's plenty of options.

AEM, Motec, Apexi Power FC. A good choice is a obd1 ecu installed with Hondata s300 or obd1 socketed+chipped tuned using crome

Make sure you find the right tuner that can tune it properly..
