Yeah yeah I know the redline is at 7000....but it's a rotary! Will I hurt it if I go to 7500? Don't yell at me.... Please thanks that is all.

Thanks! N/A the redline is 7k if I'm not mistaken, I just wanted to know if there was any harm in taking it up to 7.5 or even 8. I love the sound the rotary makes!

stock tach slows down @high rpms too, so 7500 on the tach is more like 6900rpms....
