The main reason though im looking to get the rev limiter up so high is because i always hit the rev limiter at 6700 rpm even if i shift it at 6600 (from the auto delay) and it slows my 1/4 mile down. I want it raised higher so i dont ever have to worry about hitting it i dont plan on actually taking it to 7500 just want it so i dont hit the rev limiter

hope that made some sence haha
