As said.
Normally superchips keep the standard limiter.
My 1600xe ecu has been flashed by superchips, no power increase tho, no difference to standard. Standard 6750rpm limiter. Luckily it came with the ecu, so it cost me nothing,lol
With an inlet box etc, you might find the limiter is cutting in before your power peaks, in which case a higher limiter would help.
Over 7000rpm tho and you need to start looking at fitting arp rod bolts.

So realy steve your supirior power seems as though its had a lapse and a small minded minion has proven you wrong and even has proof to back his idea up.
