raising stock rb25det rev limit?

[ANVIL]

is it safe to raise the rev limit (7200 right?) on an rb25det with a stock head? would it make power or am i just asking for trouble?

[StricNyne]

this was recently covered, there was concern for valve float, but i think that was it, also if you dont have crank coller issue addressed it might be perilous, and finally stock turbo stops being efficient in the high end, so not much of a point to even rev that high

there is no point without cams and a turbo big enough to make power that high
