I have a flash by Al , with Intake, MBC@19 , fuel pump 255 walbro. and he says I can rev to 7800rpm. How safe is it with stock internals.

I am not sure if anyone has done any studies..But after my Xede w/tune, the thing rev's so easy i will hit 7500 every so often for a split second. No problems yet.

Well - it was an original poit which I chose after much research and tearing apart of evo motors.

Since I started flashing a year and a half ago - with 1200 plus evos flashed to 7800 rpms - NOT ONE rod has let go thus far. Some guys have over 50,000 miles on their motors.

At this point I am confident that 7800 is safe

However - those who request a stock 7606 red line may have one when they get flashed or any other red line they choose

Just remember that the stock turbo runs out of steam before 7800rpms

wouldn't you need to upgrade your injectors as well to raise the redline?
