tonight, i tried to ease up to the rev limiter and i had the digital tach (when you hold down the mileage reset button and start the car) and i hit all the was up to 6800 and then i got scared....maybe they did forget the revlimiters on the 02's bro....plus C & D says that they are limited at 138 mph and ive had mine well over 145 mph (on the track of course )....so maybe we beat the system this time my friend...

you have to try it like this:

1. hold down the odometer reset button
2. start the car while holding down the odometer reset button
3. hold the button until the word test appears
4. then continue to hit the button until the word "tach 1223" (those are just random # btw)

it will run until the car is turned off and restarted. there are some other interesting things in that menu too. ie fuel pressure, oil pressure, digital tachometer, and a bunch of other shit which i dont know what it means....but try it again and take a gander...
