Default What rev limit?

Okay, so my sti 4 rev's to 8250rpm. Well that's where the limiters set, not that I normally use all those rev's.

How about some of the high power engines on here? Is it all torque and standard rev's, or do you rev to 8000, 9000rpm etc?

Yes, mine drops off after about 7000, so I usually change anywhere between 6700 and 7200.

The question was what are the high powered engines, say over 500bhp, using. Do they gain the power through high rev's or not?
