Default Redline!

What is the redline for a Stage I APR? The reason I ask is because a nailed 7000 RPM in 3rd gear... shat was still pulling!

Default I don't see how it could have still been pulling at 7k RPM

the turbo runs out of breath around 6k.

Default I have seen more than 7k in 2nd, and no limiter,

Of course these aren't the most accurate tach's you have ever seen.

Default The question isn't if the engine can hit that...

but if you'll have any power up there, which you won't

Default What I think he meant was that the rpms were still pulling upward.

Rev limiter should be at around 7100-7300 rpms.

Default

Im pretty sure, that the turbo cuts out at 6K. Anything your feeling after that is but dyno stuff.
