Re: RPM fluctuates while revving engine in

Feels like the engine is gasping for air.
I work in an automotive environment and had a chance to get into a '93 Park Avenue Ultra and i decided to rev up the engine while in "park" to see if this car would fluctuate like mine. Turns out the acceleration took the tach all the way to the red zone. Just wondering if there's something wrong with my car and if anyone else notices this or has this "problem". I'm not sure it's even a problem cause my car runs beautifully and i don't seem to have lost any engine performance. Maybe it has something to do with the supercharger? If anyone has an opinion or an idea on what's going on i'd appreciate it!

-Thank you
first of all it is not good for your engine to rev it that high, and to answer your question i suspect a rev limiter installed...
