What you up to tonight?

oh ok. My car was built just to prove you could make crazy power on an ls motor lol.
not much... just watchin CSI Miami lol. how was the wedding?
I will work out a package deal. Probably can get us 3 pulls each for close to 30-40 a piece. depends on how many people I can get.
They hook up a sensor under your hood that sends a signal to their computer and reads the output of your cars performance. Your car is strapped down from the front and rear as you can see in my sig. They wait until car is warm and they drive it slow to 3rd gear. Then they hit it until it winds out third gear and that is where you get your numbers from. It's fun watching everyone cover their ears when you have a loud car at around 8200RPM inside a building.
That's cool and not a bad price. My question here is My car's RPM band ends at 8K (I haz no VTAK). So, does that mean they'll kill it until it hits redline or over redline? This may be a stupid question but I don't think I've ever been told or given an honest answer to this question. If you push your car past redline, isn't that a bad thing? I mean, wasn't the redline designed so you DON'T a-splode the engine?
Oh and my car should be plenty loud being that there is not really an exhaust to speak of.
Redline is a factory setting. Doesn't always mean the best. My factory redline was low 7k with the motor in it now, and it will spin until 9k, but 7800 is my best shift point. They won't keep pushing it. They'll push it to redline. On your dyno graph you will see where your power band starts dropping a good bit. That is where you want to shift to stay in your power band through the gears. If MSP has a power band.
Most of the time with extremely higher revving you'll end up dropping a valve, spinning a bearing, etc... hence the reason my car got an upgraded valve train (valve springs, retainers, cams) because the guy was always taking it too high on stock parts. Just depends on what the motor was made for. Rev limiters do help you not do that if you aren't paying attention or whatever so you don't over rev it. But, redline doesn't always mean the best place to shift.

Wedding was good, Andrew. My brother seemed really happy and that was good to see.

lol dave, we need to find you your own sarcasm smilies... and yes, revlimiters protect the engine. although most honda guys use them as shift lights lol
