Hey guys ive done a thorough search and i can't find anything. I was lookin at a thread on the370z, And i was wondering... They say that a lot of us G37's are running 8k redlines, with no problems so far.

I myself love having a high revving car, i envy S2k's, M3's, and even Civic SI's for their unreal rpm limits. Who here is running 8k redlines and how are you doing it? Cobb AP raises 500 revs right? Technosquare?

Any problems so far w/ the engine if i do something like this?

go to 1 minute 5 seconds. i don't know if it has been flashed. i guess you can post a question and see if it gets answered.

Stock i know we can go a little extra before reaching the rev limiter, i think like 7700-7800? That does look different, barely reaching 8k. Interesting..

Also, on the Cobb map information PDF it says:

Anyone tried this?

 

i <3 my 8k redline, but i don't do it often but it comes in handy on the freeway

 

Are there proven horsepower gains for extending the redline to 8000 RPMs? Otherwise it'll be all show and no go...

 

higher rpm is not only for hp.....help with driving on track or canyons.....lets you hold that gear jus alittle longer.....taggin the rev limiter is okay....dont be scared....if it wasent there then motors would blow

 

I'd comment but hawaii boy already answered.

 

Our stock rev limiter is set to 7800rpm. It won't harm the car at all. When you shift at that point you're keeping the rpm on the sweet spot for the next gear. So you won't fall out of the powerband.

 

^ Yeah, but what i mean is raise the rev limiter to like 8300 perhaps? Just a few hundred more.
