i dont care about my "stock" redline, and at the moment my pfc redlines at 8000, but my car beeps at 7500, i know this seems dumb as hell, but did mazda put in an audible alert of redline? if the beep is from something else, then im screwed... my oil pressure is only at about "100" at 8k anyways. and all fluid levels are allright.

10k rpm's??? I'm afraid to hold it that long-



What the highest rpm you can shift at with a

strong, streetported engine? (3mm)



What do you shift at Vosko?
