Default red lining

ok the fuel cut off on a f22b1 is like 6500 so what im wondering how bad is it for the engine when you redline it. Like is it really bad or just not ideal?

Definately not a good idea. Not just because of fuel cut off. In general, it puts undue stress on the internals of your engine and wears vital parts prematurely.

And as far as redlining your engine goes:<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by bagged93accord &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">

it's ok to redline the motor occasionally, but don't make it an everyday thing...
