remind me not to buy your car when you eventually sell it hahYeah I think i hit mine 3 or 4 times today! Its there to keep you from over revving. So its safe to hit it but does suck when you do
... It also depends on how the limiter is limiting the engine. Fuel cut = bad, spark cut = not bad.
they would never cut the fuel to limit over rev. its an ignition deal so it kills spark. And this baby will never be for sale
It's not necessarily bad, on a N/A car, but not something you'd want to do constantly. On a F/I car, it's a big no-no, because Ford's rev limiter cuts fuel, which causes a lean condition. If you're NA, it won't be a big deal, but if you're FI, that could blow the engine.
The reason you see drag racers do it is because they use aftermarket rev limiter boxes, which cut spark. The only bi-product of that is maybe a small fireball. But it's not harmful to the engine.

Sorry, I should've specified. I was tired. Yes, I meant nitrous, though it wouldn't be good with a radical race setup on a SC or Turbo either.Nitrous + Rev limiter IS very bad - that does not apply to what I said - there is a LOT more energy present. Always set the window switch below the rev limiter.
