Default Re: does 02 T/A LS1 have rev limiter

So are you saying a person would have a hard time blowing the motor by over revving it?The reason i ask is because i was showing off doing a burnout and when it shifted to second(A4) gear it kinda puked out on me.Next time i'm thinking about leaving it in 1st and going for it.I just don't want to blow it up.

I was doing a nice burnout until it shifted. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

I am not saying you cant hurt your engine smacking it off of the rev limiter, but it is not exactly good for the engine. Most people hurt their engines by manually over-reving (M6- missing a shift).

I am not saying you cant hurt your engine smacking it off of the rev limiter but it should not hurt it. It is not exactly good for the engine though. Most people hurt their engines by manually over-reving (M6- missing a shift).
