Rev limiter
I just purchased my first Corvette (2001 roadster) and I love it! Yesterday I hit the rev limiter at 6K rpm. It seems to me that there is a bit more in there. Can I change the limiter setting? How far can I safely go?
Mods are Borla Stinger & Blackwing intake so far.
Thanks

Stock valve springs are marginal at best. Don't kiss a valve, it hurts
