hey does anyone know if i have a rev limiter?? i swear i don't but a person at a shop says i have to, its the PM6 ECU, i've hit at least 7600rpm and he said the rev limiter should be around 7200-7400 but i dunno, does anyone know? my engine is a 88 CRX Si engine.

 

yes, there is a rev limiter. Factory setting cuts off the fuel at 7,200 RPM. It may vary a little, so I suppose yours may be around 7,400, but I'm pretty much positive that it's not above 7,500.

 

Yea, no point in revving that high anyway... You can feel a serouse power cut @ 6800, thats about were the camshafts say Im done.

 

what should i redline at? people say i can go to 7200rpm and still be safe, but i think 6500rpm is plenty, please help

 

you're exactly right. you "can" rev up to 7,200RPM and be fine, but in general a redline is set becuz that's where the engine stops making good power compared to fuel use. Just stick to shifting at 6,500, you don't want to be bouncing the engine off the rev limiter anyhow, that's really hard on components.

 

yeah thank you, when i heard 7200 i'm like HOLY SHYT

 

If you're referring to drag racing, then you better redline ... you'd just better not race otherwise.
