So compression check, and im just praying it checks out
I figured some people think the ls vtack which is typically stock ls bottom end should have the rev limiter set to 9200 so i figured the one time trip to really ------- high isnt that bad, but never done that before and it scared me a bit

However with the 1st gear spining soo fast at 55mph I can see that it would be kind of hard to get into gear. There's no way I could even get my car into 1st gear going 55mph.
I had a friend that did the same thing but from 6th to 3rd in his celica and grenaded everything. Flywheel blew apart, engine grenaded, etc etc.

Did the same thing in my a6/L3 I was kinda hope it would blow up so it would give me a little motivation to finaly build my b18. Hit some where in the upper 8k range
NOTE TO SELF, DONT WOT SHIFT AND GO FROM 3RD TO 2ND.........lol
