Supporting mods for higher rev limit?
Hi, what are the recommended mods for higher tuned rev limits like 8k?
I've seen catch cans and so what else? |

Assuming you realise you will need more than a tune to make power above 7000rpm. Start by having a read of the @Element Tuning threads on lubrication and the rocker they destroyed. They are running up around 9000rpm so have some great experience with high rpm FA20s.
These are the threads I was referring to. http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=63723 http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=73858

Almost 3.5k $ to suport a redline above 8 k and make a couple more hp. Headwork/valves/springs/retainers/tune etc. Seems stupid.

I can appreciate the desire for a higher na powered car but the benefit/cost ratio is quite low.

In addition to what others have said, don't forget additional/upgraded cooling....revving up that high to make more power is going make things even hotter

You might over spin the oil pump past 8.5. Interested to know about that.
