fuel cutoff is at 10,031rpm with fuel resume at 9544 rpm. Of course, these vaulues can be changed if one needs more room to work with!!

I guess I'm going to have to upgrade the brakes now. 227 mph. The reason I was asking was:
1) I was hoping I had a rev limiter for the NOS.
2) I was experiencing some cutout at high revs. I guess it is valve float or fuel stavation.
No NOS, until all is well to 6,000 rpm. My decor plate was coming off the other day, so I may also have a vacuum leak also.

Reprogramming the RPM limit in the chip should work. I have mine set lower (4800 I believe) but have never hit it.

problem with this is the chip only controls fuel cutoff.... if you are on the bottle and all of a sudden there is no fuel.... well, it's not pretty!
Best way to control revs are with ignition cutoff.
