Is there a neccessity to rev the engine up that high? Isn't max horse power at 6,500? Wouldn't it be slower if you over rev it like that?

i like to rev high because it sounds FREAKIN awesome, and my power doesnt run out til about 7500rpm, it still pulls though and then comes 7800 and it hits a brick wall, lol
and THEN...one day a mustang lightly rear-ended me...but it was enough to give the car a good shake. And GUESS WHAT! after that for 2 months it RAN FLAWLESSLY...pulling up to 8500 with ease...I was stocked! And then after about 2 months it seemed to drop back to its lazy ways...i've tried a few things...but haven't tried all the options... |

this is the same reason that the rx-8 has a 0-60 in only 5.9 sec, and only has 159 ft-lb of torque. it can leave it in a lower gear till 9K, putting more torque to the ground through the transfer system (drive train). |
Fuel cut or the rev limiter.
