its unlikely to overrev unless you mishift.

how high did you rev it?

did you mishift or idid it seem like you hit rev limiter a little higher, like 8700rpm?

 

like i think i reved to like 8700 maby in third then in to forth

 

the REAL cutoff of an ITR is 8600

8400 redline, 8600 fuel cut

some people try to say its 8500 fuel cut and 8200 redline, but thats wrong

....i got the specs right here...

if ur fuel cut isnt at 8600...ur tach is probably wrong or ur car was chipped

go look at ur tach, the second red line is even at 8600, not 8500

 

That being said, the tach is off by ~400RPM at that point (reads about 400 rpm higher than actual).

the tach signal reads ~8650 peak on the vafc after you bounce I'd attribute it to the fuel cut being hit at 8600 and "shutting" it down for the next 50 revs .

 

The stock tach is not accurate at high rpms/speeds. I used to be able to hit 9000+ all the time, it was great.

Second (third?) that. Mine's 400 off (high) above 6500, porbably more. I thought I overrevved once, but I've never hit rev limiter or fuel cut.

 

My stock tach is DEAD NUTS accurate.

 

Go to an autocross, listen to people (experienced drivers) bounce off their rev limiters numerous times, then you'll rev the hell out of your engine with no worries.

 

my Tach goes crazy around 4k rpms it goes waaaay past the 10k mark sometimes

i'm trying to find a new one as we speak

I completely agree haha. I remember seeing countless Z06's hit the rev limiter at the end of their run (on a strait)

 

EU, JDM itrs cuts at 8900 rpms.

 

According to Honda (expo contacts and press releases) it's 8500 cut. 8400redline of course. :Shrug: I'll still take what honda says over helms (who has the GS-R info wrong too..)

 

Most of the time its redline + 500rpms = fuel cut.
