I believe the limiter is set around 6250 ish? I have read somewhere something about a "hard" and "soft" limit though? The basic idea i took away from it was that if you were climbing through the revs and hit the limiter at 6250 then that's it, however if you gave it a momentary blip to change down a gear it allowed a few more revs or something. I could of course just be talking absolute BS as this is all just what i read on the internet.

I believe that's mechanical over revving... great way to send a piston through the block :)
