Oh Ok so how could I get rid of the fuel cut out? Is there a wire to cut that is going to the ECU. I looked at my ECU and even changed it wit another one, the same thing happens. But i wonder if there is a wire to cut?

Yes, there is a way to disable fuel cut.

No, you don't want to disable it. Why would you do that? Do you know why the rev-limiter is there? To stop average Joe Schmoe from beating the shit out of his engine.

Trust me, you won't be going very fast when you bend valves because you overrevved the engine.

How can I "over rev" the engine if the Red Lines says 7 not 5 1/2? Makes no sence! Anyway I dont feel the car start to loose power at that high RPM, which means the power pand isnt over yet. When you see a power rating about a Probe its says 164 HP at 6,000 RPMs not 5500. So if the power ban contunues then I am loosing power.
