Ecu chip with no rev-limiter.. Can i use an msd 6al with rev-limit pills???

Ok so i have S5 jspec ecu remapped by knight sport to for remove fuel cut and the revlimiter. I really dont like the idea of no rev limiter so can i buy an MSD 6AL ignition box with the rev-limit chips? I read somewhere that this is even worse than no rev limit becouse the trailings will still fire but i need something to save me if i miss shift or get to exited in the burnout box. can i use the msd 6al to limit my revs or not?

no ill affects of the rev limiter only affecting the leading plugs? The trailing plugs will still fire but your saying that shouldn't be a problem right?
cool
btw: I dont know if you remeber but i bought this ecu from you. It works great.
Thanx again

i have an igntiion and set the rev limit at like 4500 for fun. when it hits it, it slows the revving down alot and runs like crap, since the trailing plugs still fire. so it doesnt completely limit it (you would need two boxes for that), but it "slows" it down a lot.
