Depending on the motor setup i.e. cam profile, compression ratio, general flow etc.
99% of the time a 1.8L setup with itr cams will stop making positive power after 8500 rpms. I.E. a revlimit of 9,000 rpms would be the highest you would need to set your revlimit.
There is no reason to be taking a motor past 9,000 rpms which does not produce power over 9,000 rpms.

Dont think rev limiter works in a downshift like this. or are you meaning something else?
This guy already said his friend mis-shift to 3rd instead of 5th at 9k.. It might sounds dumb, but this is why i recommand most people get the mugen or spoon shift linkage bushing.
mis shift can still happens, but much less chance and its extememly useful during track days.

Exactly. A rev limiter cannot prevent a mechanical over-rev (i.e. mis-shift).

Re: (dsav4shawn)
Rebuilding the block and then will sell it off.
The only thing we salvaged from the head is the ITR cams, Toda Valve spring.
Will be buying a ported B16A head from a friend and then mating it to a B20B
