Is it okay to increase the redline by about 100 rpm?
Hi. I have an '06 Stang GT automatic with a Roush CAI & I run the 93 octane tune & the U7140 9r06 DiabloSport. I installed 245/45-17 tires and now I seem to shift into 3rd right at 60 mph which I think is slowing down my ET. Is there much benefit to ET or risk to the engine to bump the redline to say 6100 rpm? Thanks. John

That should be fine.

I cranked mine up by 200 rpm, I shift right @6000 and didn't want to accidently bump the rev limiter if I go slightly over.johnfmoynihan wrote:Hi.
