everybody free rev's their engines, its what you do when you start a race from a dig, just before you dump the clutch to launch your car,thats called drag racing, or anyother kind of race that starts from (0) mph,, thats also why you have a rev limiter, which can be changed as well, but anyway, good luck with the repairs, hope you find it before something is really damaged.

First I do not need anyone to justify anything I do, I did it because I like going fast and it served my purpose.
I thanked him because everyone else was jumping on the "can't test it while the engine is running" band wagon.
If you don't agree thats fine you treat your car the way you want but there is no need to tell me I am wrong just because it is not found in your book.
Not talking to just you but to all so don't take it personally.

Edit: Just because I am checking it while it is running it does not mean I am comparing it to a normal compression check. Just comparing it to the other cylinders. I haven't found anything to warrant repairs yet and I do not think I will at this time. Did enough tests to say that nothing serious is wrong.

oh and arron my sr made 12lbs of boost free revving. i dont recomend free revving a motor though, causes unneaded stress and strain on a motor

THANK YOU. JESUS CRIST!!!! people have alot to learn about cars. i have a quick soution:
