Yeah with a tune, just wondering how 7500 v. 8000 feels with the engine and inside the car. Sound good, not rough/rigid/etc.

from the few dynos I've seen with the limit raised it looks like the power flatlines so there is no benefit other than stress on the motor and the sound. Back to the original question, we all know that no tuner has yet beenable to tune the VVEL, do you think when that happens and it surely will eventually that it might get the Z closer to 370whp?

I dont think there would be much of a difference with 500 more rpms. The engine feels rough at 7400-7500 why would it not sound that way or even worse at an even higher RPM

I personally would leave the red line stock and not change it. Even with built engine, would sure make the engine stay in better shape for sure. Keeping the engine safe is a important aspec to me.
