Dude, that thing that's "knocking you back" is called the REV LIMITER, and hitting it constantly is NOT a good thing. It's designed to prevent the engine from revving out of it's specified range. There is a reason why it's called the "redline" dude.

UHHH, yeah. rev limiter. hitting that = bad. what gen prelude do u have? ive got a 5th gen and my redline is marked at 7400 but i usually shift at 7900 and it wont hit the limiter.
im guessing you dont have a 5th gen then if its knocking at 7000. check the specs for your gen prelude.

Continue to do that until the rev limiter malfunctions, you rev it past 8k, and the engine blows the hell up. Then come back to H-T and change your username to DR.DUMB.

how can u shift at 7900, you should hit the rev limiter at the MOST at 7500, maybe u should took a look into that.. you should lose power anyway around 7400
