1989 Corolla SR5 - No rev limiter

Pulls to just under 8k; well past the ~6400rpm redline. Great for low speed AutoX slaloms where you want to stay in first.

how can i remove the rev limiter of my celica?

@lancasteur Assuming your car is fuel injected, I think the only way you can go is to find a chip with a higher rev limiter. They're there for a reason!

@chebordelloraga

I'm not even sure what that means.

em.. no. you wait until the engine is warm. do you have any idea how much damage this causes the engine

[snnacho]

@Larry3200 the car was $350. I already sold it for more. :D

@danist518 however, going well above the redline could very easily damage the engine!

@Larry3200 sorry, I know this is old, but I need to correct some ignorance. On cars made from around 1985 and up, warming up a car does virtually nothing. If anything, it DAMAGES the car, because it's better for an engine to warm up under a load-Idling, a car simply wastes gas, and fluids cannot get to where they need to go as quickly as they should (which they do with you driving). The only way not warming up an engine could damage is if you tried a 0-80 out your driveway right after startin up
