it means that you can keep the accelerator pedel pinned to the floor, then when you push the clutch in, it drops to a certain revlimiter. say your car from 8500 drops to 6500 you can set set your rev limiter right at the 6500 that way the motor is at the right rev for each gear.

What is the point shifting at that high of an rpm??? Your car isn't making any power up that high any way all your doing is putting undo stress/wear on your engine..And yes any type of "power chip or what ever there called this week are a total waste I knew somebody who bought one and we took it apart all that was inside was the wires were solidered to a resistor..

Those chips are burned with a fat fuel curve to cover their own asses so you don't lean your **** out. You are doing more harm then good with generic eBay chips, they only way your car should be chipped is with a reliable tuner and on a dyno.
