Even if I knew a way, I wouldn't tell you. That poor 2.2 would croak.
Seriously. The neutral rev limiter exists on automatics to protect the car from you.
the car is built, i start getting power then the rev limiter hits, its starting to make me mad, i am getting ready for the racing season and that rev limtier even in drive is holding me back, i just rebuilt it too

There is no rev limiter in drive, only a speed governer, @ 108.
If you have a race season, if you can trap 108 in the 1/4, you already know who to disable it.

So how are you getting power in Neutral?
Please don't tell me you're revving up in neutral and dropping into Drive to launch at the track......
I just checked out your profile, and I'm curious has to what you mean by "fuel chip" and "tranny chip" ......also your engine isn't really built, but if you're doing what I think you are at the track its your transmission thats gonna blow.
There is no way to disable the rev limiters yet. HP tuners software (which is supposed to be in beta now) would do that. When that program comes out, you would need to use it.
What kind of fuel and tranny chips are you using?
i dont netrual drop it, i have a B&M tranny chip, and a prgrammer from summit, stage 2 cam, pitons, rods, fuel injectors, i just want to be able to rev it up higher in netrual, and i have a rev limiter in drive, i hit it at about 6,000 rpm

So wait.....you say you have all of these mods, yet most are not listed in your profile....and you say you have a 1974 bug.....yet your profile says 1970? A little forgetful today are we?
I'm starting to smell something....
I thought you said your car was basically stock back like 2-3 weeks ago on JBNW?

No ish. If you want higher revs while launching, get a torque converter w/ a higher stall, and learn to powerbrake.

better a delay than a disaster.

Actually, there is a way. I found out by pure accident, however you throw so many codes, your car becomes undrivable.
HP tuners will be your friend. Their software will remove the rev limiter, as well as help you tune the motor for what ever you're adding to it ( ie: boost, nitrous, ect)
you guys have been such a help, thanks

Don't let the punks get to you. If they can't say anything helpful its because they probably
have VERY LITTLE IF ANY MECHANICAL SKILLS . Talking crap is just their way of hiding that
fact. They figure the more crap they say the less likley anyone will know how dumb they are.
