Okay, I don't have a lot of time right now, and I did do a quick search, but couldn't find the answer to my question... maybe I'm not looking hard enough, but oh well...
My question is, what do yinz redline at? Everyone I know redlines at 6,400 rpm. Every aftermarket gauge has the same redline marking. Yet, my celi won't go any higher than 6,000 rpm, and redlines at about 5,700 rpm...
Is this normal for a 97 ST Coupe?
yup its normal and i hate it i wish we could rev higher...i've posted about this previously you can't by-pass the redline which stinks too
is the 7afe really safe to rev past that? Last time I checked they arent exactly bulletproof engines. But hey I could be wrong.
mines normally doesnt go about 5700 - 5800 rpms....
but i also have an auto....
its not bullet proof but our engines can handle alot...i think stock you'd be fine up to around 6k-6.3k rpm but i'm not sure cause who honestly spends more than 3 seconds above 5.5k?
There's no more hp gain up there, correct?

ok i'm not sure....this is just a guess but i'll say no not really....you'll just be able to pull a little bit longer and keep up the momentum
this is just a guess

I've done 125, and it just couldn't push it through the air anymore, but it wasn't on redline either, i think i was at 5900

my 4a-fe would hit the fuel cut at 6200 rpm's... racer25, with a modified ecu, has taken his 7a-fe up to 8,000 rpm's and the valves started to float... these are non-interference motors

i have taken my 7afe past 5700!! mine doesn't start to cut out till 6500. i normally only take it up to 6 when driving though.
hey philly how'd you get it to rev that high, i get fuel shut off at 5800>? how did you bypass that?!?!?
