ignition module rev x-tend
I just ordered an ignition module. I have the option to extend the rev limiter up to 500 rpm. Is this beneficial? Will it hurt the motor? I was probably going to throw in ape valve springs when I get the turbo on, and I would imagine that extra revs would help, especially with the turbo kit.

If you look at the power curve of that small turbo, you will probably find that you need less rpm....not more. At least that is what we saw with Racheal's Busa.

I would go up on the limiter to be safe. not for the option of taking the motor that high cause like shane said you wont need to go that high to make good hp. But if you get on the limiter while your on boost you will hurt a piston, or two. the factory rev limiter kills the fuel not the ignition. Just another example of how the fuel system can kill a turbo 14
