Mine dosn't rev fast by any means but with a 10" verter and LTs and such its alot faster then stock.

It really will not matter unless you are above say 700 hp. You can mainly notice on an unloaded dyno. It will not do it as bad with a load but I can still notice it.

I always was under the impression anything over 7200rpm would use the 7200rpm cell values. If you spun to 7500-7700 I dont see how the fueling and timing would be much different than 7200. I know the rev limits go WELL past 7200... Maybe someone can chime in on this.

Another limitation comes when you start playing with boost... No 2 or 3bar MAP sensors for us LT1 guys, so were stuck BSing through the programming to make sure it fuels correctly for the boost. Then with changes in weather we get changes in performance that an N/A motor'd car wouldnt have issues with.
