Engines are designed to explode inside. Baby it around all it's life and it wont last.

I wouldn't call WOT and 5500 babying, just not thrashing it... So sitting on the limiter is good? If I never went past half throttle yeh fair enough. But it gets its fair share of bootfulls.

Would love to be able to limiter dump, just too scared. Launch control sounds cool enough with 4 inch intake and exhaust

Not aimed at you. It was just a general statement for the guys who baby their car around.

Seems that most people in this thread go alright lol.

I never hit the limiter intentionally and have done it in the wet a couple if times. I do have a soft cut too though.

Nah nah I know, yeh, a soft cut is sounding pretty good. Even with just shy of 300rwkw I've gotta be careful about it breaking out, I don't know how you guys with more keep it straight!
