Yes, it does. Don't worry about bypassing it as it is set to 10,000 RPM from the factory. :lol: The MSD will kick in way earlier.

No, it has a fuel cutoff. But its set to about 10,000rpm.
So you dont need to worry about it. Just set the MSD.

they figured the intake wouldnt let you get to any rpm that would be harmful to the bottom end
they were right, the intake pretty much kills power over 5500

It is still a rev limiter, just a different version.

isn't 5500 a bit optimistic?

Yes. Horsepower is dead and one its way down once you've hit 4400. It'll rev to over 6000 and make noise no problem, it ust won't make power there.
