The more I read on here, the more I seem to think im being too soft on my car. Even when I talk to mates they say the same thing to me, "stop being a girl and go to redline". I hate pushing mine past 5500, I think I have gone to 6k once, in first cause it broke loose. Who else thinks like this? Im just scared im gunna blow the thing up haha

U dont need to rev these motors

Short shift and feel the torque do the work

Personally I don't see the point, as most cars (lightly modded) aren't making anymore power over 5500. And besides it reduces the possibility of oil pump failure (if not bouncing off the limiter). However in my particular car I have the soft cut set to 6350rpm and hard cut at 6400.

Cheers

Jet that's pretty much what I think too. I have a mild tune, but still makes 750nm of torque, at about 2950.

not everyone can have 10 sec F6 to thrash mate ;)

I think I might ask for a soft cut when it gets the retune aswell impellor, just incase

500-1000 mightn't make much difference but hitting limiter vs. not hitting limiter is a pretty sure bet that one is safer.
