Here you go

Can't understand why you would be limited to 6.5k, the 6A12 FTO engine revs up to about 8.2k - above 5.5k is where the power band starts getting serious. Get your MIVEC out!

I tested mine on the way to work this morning.
Drove in with my mivec hanging out..

8400ish rpm is where the limiter kicks in - my dial has redline at about 8100rpm.

Wrouuuu-pedpedpedpedpedped-uuuuuuummm! ;-)

Show em your mivec - all the time ;-)

lol cool thanks for that from what i can see from that pic the 8rpm would be wher my 6500 rmp would be because i have got my colt dials in still? i will have to look in to this i bit further? i did see if ive got a limiter i went to 7600rmp on my colt dials

but no limiter at that point?
