Weird rev limiter like issue

So I got my car back from the shop, they had to repaint damaged caused by thieves breaking into the car along with other damage.

I get my car back drive it around, its warmed up water temp around 190F(scan guage) floor it in first and it feels like i nailed the rev limiter at 5k rpms in first. I got a solid cel then it flashes then turned off. In which i imediatly get off the gas, hit the scan on the scanguage and had no codes

Any ideas ?


edit:
new engine 2,000 miles ago new sparkplugs 2,000miles ago, new coils 2,000 miles ago and new wires 2,000 miels ago ^_^
