9k rev issues
I'm having issues reving over 9k.I have a JWT ecu with no rev limiter and the motor sounds like it's bouncing of a rev limiter.First I thought that it was blowing the spark so I gap the spark plugs from 45 to 35.Then it keeped on with the same issue so I added a MSD 6al with no rev limit chip and it's still does the same thing.Today I will be closing the spark plug gap to 28 to see if that will fix the issue.Other than that I can't think of anything else that can be causing it.I will appreciate if you guys can share your thoughts.Heres my set up.

N1 cams set at 0
BC S/R
JWT ECU with Emanage/going to check if emenage is the issue wich I highly dought since I've seen other ve's reving past 9k with it.

Today I uninstalled the emanage,installed a new cap and rotor and it didn't fix anything.What you guy's think might be going on?

Just to ask, why do you want to rev past 9000 RPMs.

Heat range of the spark plugs maybe? I know during last summer, my car would did not want to get upto 8k. I put in one step colder plugs and it ran to its 8500rpm limit.

You still running MAF? It could be a boost leak issue.

Andreas.I'm not going to be reving past 9k.My nitrous shuts of at 8800 rpm and I need to set the rev limiter at 9k.Can't take the risk of misshifting and blowing my engine up by bouncing off the revlimiter with nitrous.
