step on the gas and tell me if the engine spins until it blows or if it reaches a certain RPM and bounce back anf forth at that RPM. If you are right the RPMs will continue to increase until the engine blows or the flywheel shatters and comes through the floor decapitating you or at least removing a limb.

yes there are rev limiters in fc's but by now many will not work anymore. fuel cut on the rear rotor happens for all turbos and s4 n/a's at 7600 and 8600 for s5 n/a's. i dont know about automatics but im assuming its the same. btw dont waste money on a chip, get a safc...in the long run it is much more useful.

You ever seen the vid of the guy revving an S4 past 9000 rpm for 10 minutes? Didn't look like there was a rev limiter there to me. Poor car too 10 minutes of that before it blew.
