.HOWEVER.. i never said MOST.. i said ALOT.. alot could indicate 10% of 4000 Supras... Most would indicate 75% of 4000 supra's..

what difference does it make where you set your rev limiter if you know that if you hit it, there's a good chance you will be changing the engine.. It's what the engine can take, not where you set the electronics. If I put my rev limiter to 15k is that now my redline???

DING DING .. thank you.... clearly you must have been dreaming because Intense said it isn't possible
I have probably built more 1000HP supras than any other tuner and we never go to 10K on them. The head just doesnt flow well enough no matter what cams you put in it. 8500-8700 is where we shift ours with the biggest crane cams available. The rev limiter is set at 9K.

So a guy "went for a ride" and from the passenger seat he could see the tach that doesn't go to 10k, hit 10k under 1000hp of acceleration.....yeah... that's what I would trust as my info as well.....Ding..Ding... any lights going off?

No one said it wasn't possible to rev it to 10k... It's just not where they rev to, and the won't live there...that's why they don't rev them that high....
