The rod bolts also become suspect above 8000 RPM so it is best not to spin one that high.

That said, I am working on getting the parts needed to safely increase the rev limit but the parts for the VVEL system do not exist at the moment. MA and JWT are working on this now.
1slow use BMW m5 rod bolts to rev to 8,200. Don't know how reliable it is at that range but the car is still on the road.
