waht causes it..like tonight i was killin a civic but i noticed at a very high rpm there was somethin wierd goin on in first gear..is thAT SOME KINDA saftey for the motor
ok ,cool,ya ,musta been a limiter..didn't know there was one ..is it computer activated and how does it work? can it be bypassed and how do people blow up thier engine with nitros if it has a limiter
It's computer controlled a chip or a ecc tuner will take care of that problem. My question is why would you want to with a stock cam? Stock cams fall on their face at 5200 rpms. N.O.S if not properly installed and tuned will blow a motor and if you hit the limiter while using a N.O.S will force the engine to rev past this limit and find the weakest link and good by.

To add on to that it is Nitrous or Nitrous Oxide, N.O.S is a company
Anyway, when it hits the stock rev limiter, it cuts fuel. So you run REALLY lean with the nitrous and your engine goes bu-BYE Aftermarket ignitions have timing rev limiters that cut the spark so your engine doesn't go lean like that.
