Maybe your power drops off after that point so the tuner decided to just end it at 8000... Who knows Lol

Thats possible but there arent a whole lot of variables with my car vs most other guys turbo cars. I dont have any engine work done so I would assume I have similar power curves to other people.

find the tuner and ask, hes the only one who will know the actual reason...

Mine is set at 8500rpm but my peak power is at 8000rpm. If you are only using your car for street driving I wouldn't worry to much about it. Just my 2 cents.

Bad tuner probably. You say its a conservative tune? If timing was really advanced, maybe they would lower the redline because it was detonating up top (which is dumb imo). Maybe they had a spark blow out / misfire problem they couldn't figure out above 8k rpms. Ask the dude who tuned it or just go get retuned elsewhere.

Thanks for the input. I will attempt to contact the tuner.

if its an f20 then u should at least be revving to the stock redline, most people go higher
