you won't make any more power unless you do engine work that makes power above the rev limiter.

you have to mess with fuel pump relays , dont mess with it, only hondas deserve that kind of rice-mod

I cant remember too well but people said you can get a fox relay that has a higher limit or else take your relay and put a differenr resistor or something in it, its mathematical, kinda the same way you change the speed at which the spoiler pops up on corrados

Put a standard Single Pole Single throw relay in place. It's the relay with 4 prongs. This will get rid of your ~6,000 rpm rev limit, and rely on the knock box to do the trick at ~7,200.
Be warned though, your fuel pump will run any time the key is in the on position.
Cheers

Not only that but they stop making power at about 6400 rpms - the added revs don't do anything except stress the components. I set my shift-light at 6200 rpms so that by the time I get around to shifting, I'm at 6400 - the only time I ever take the engine speed higher is when I'm door handle to door handle.
