ive taken 1st, 2nd and 3rd to the limiter and its not like hondas where it will bounce off the limiter it completely cuts power for like a second which is very annoying btw. I dont pay too much attention to when the limiter comes in as i shift at redline when im playing around BUT i think its around 8k, much much higher than in the video posted above. Now back when I played around with hondas they would do this at like 4k rpm (where vtec usually engages) due to a clogged solenoid screen filter preventing vtec activation and thus preventing the car from going above 4k. I have almost no experience with subaru boxers so I have no idea what goes on at around 6k rpm in these cars that could be causing your issue besides perhaps the change in fuel injection but that happens during our torque dip at 4-5k so i really have no clue what could be going on
