What are the maximum revs the stock valve springs support?
The stock revlimiter is @ 8600RPM . By using a Kenji's P28 and rasing the revlimiter to 9100RPM, will this harm the engine? Is a replacement of the stock valve springs recommended?

Should be OK with OEM cams, however any time you elevate the rpm range in which you operate the engine you will accelerate engine wear to some degree.

I think he means an engine that revs to 9100rpm will wear faster than an engine that revs to 8400rpm. Higher rpm's = more heat, friction, opportunity to damage parts.
