Second, for the people who drive MT's and are asking why he's going that far, he's not. It's the car. He pushes the pedal, it goes all the way to redline and shifts where it's supposed to shift. He can't control how far it goes past 7,600rpm without manually changing the shift point using a tuning software.

Second, you're not actually hitting anywhere over 8K RPM on the stock rev limiter settings. The needle does go past 8K, yes, but the crank is not actually spinning that fast. Datalog the car and see. The highest my car revved according to the datalogs I did using Cipher software is 7725rpm. From inside the car looked like it was revving all the way to 8K. Most of the time it will dip into the 8K range during the shift. This is normal, every auto G does that.

Nothing is wrong with your car so no need to take it to the dealer or anything.
