Angry Limitor!!!!

I have a 2000 Honda Accord SE. I want to take off or modify the rev-limitor. How would I be able to do that? And How much would it cost? Any answers????

What have you done to the engine to justify raising the rev limit?

He's right. Your engine itself is still stock. If you raise the rev limit, you'll greatly increase your risk of blowing it up.

The only way to raise the rev limiter is:

Reprogrammed ECU (Hondata)
But a Hondata program isn't a direct swap for a F23 motor, so there's some modification that'll be needed

OR

Engine swap...Dropping in a motor (H22/H23) with a higher rev limiter

But honestly, Isn't 6800RPM's enough.

Oh, wait, you have a SE which only comes with an automatic tranny. So you redline at 6,250RPMs

Re: Limitor!!!!

I see his interests are "driving fast and racing explosions." Well, he'll get both those if he runs an unmodified motor around 7000+ rpm!
