Rev limiter? WOT restriction?
I'm getting an uprev tune next week. I want to ask them to increase the rev limiter as well. How high can I go safely??
Also I saw on the uprev site that it can also remove the limits on wide open throttle. Do we have this on the 370? |

A friend of mine raised his redline and the engine started to knock 6 months later. He was hell bent on getting it fixed under warranty as he though it wasn't because of what he had did. He took all the mods off his car and took it to the dealer and the engine was replaced under warranty. Personally I think it was because he raised the redline and I think it was crappy of him to not take responsibility for it.
So, is it really worth it?? |

Definitely need a lot of breather mods to make power that high. Stock exhaust and intakes will clamp any gains.

I wouldnt raise your redline, just keep in in the powerband and rock n roll.

Intake Manifold will most likely lower any potential gains up top based on information available. Headers on the other hand will most definitely help.

Where are you getting tuned at? There isn't a wot restriction as bad as the 350z's or titans, but it's still there. You can increase responsiveness by manipulating the throttle control tables in Osiris, but not all shops do it
