Hes talking about a mis-shift, not revving too high.

 

yeah it was just a mis-shift, but whats the difference, I mean wouldent reving it to high still affect the engine the same way a mis-shift would?

 

Mis-shifting involves usually when your racing, and your goin to shift into 4th, but u slam it into 2nd, no hell no is it good for the tranny, nor is reving to 9 k in a ls motor.. but reving to around the mid to high 7 range isn't that bad nor is it as bad as it seems, if you do it, i suggest you pull over, check your oil level, your oil pan for any leaks specially around your half shaft and check for white smoke, if you see nor have any other problems your fine, people rev that high all the time, i've had millions of people tell me that My type-r motor can't handle 9300k revs.. it does every, single day..and has been doing it for over 2 months now with no problems, shit i burn less oil now then i did 3 months ago...btw run fully syn oil in that car if u plan on racing it..i've just decided to change my oil every 3-4 months, and ignore the mileage...

 

I would have to agree with integratype-r, id say if your needle was still on your rpm guage you shouldnt have a problem. I had a friend do the same thing, except the needle went way off the guage(8000+), and he had no problem in his MX-6

 

went to 8.2K on my chipped ecu/stock top end on accident a while ago when i had my ls...pulled the engine last night but havent taken the head off

 

excellent, i checked my oil and oil pan, nothing abnormal, no white smoke and no difference in performance, i had dino oil in my car when it happened but i have since changed to synthetic

my worst experience was when i buried the tach needel at 9k in my old protege

 

agreed no worries u should be fine!

 

Thanks for reassuring me
i appericiate all the info

 

you car will live a short and strainful life h:

 

if you're really worried you can do a compression test
