yes i am saying that if he had the rev limiter it MIGHT have saved his engine and ill tell you why. i wasnty in the car with him when this happened. but my cousin was. my cousin told me that he wasnt racing just driving a little faster then normal. so when he decided to shift into 3rd but accidentally hit 1st he wasnt at redline. meaning that if he was at a low enough rpm and he went to first, the rev limitter could have had a chance to cut the fuel before he overrevved it. that was my point. of course if you redline it and downshift no rev limiter would help but it does save you in most cases.
understand???
oh and ahout the h22's reliability shep, i wasnt talking about the engine itself being reliable and the replacement parts being more expensive than others. i was saying that the performance parts for the h22 are more expensive than the b series engines.
understand???
