thats why you buy the Spoonsports display meter set that show 12000rpm redline.

go to their menu page, you will see that...

I would pay to hear the car rev to 12000 rpm. I can only dream of having this beast.

I believe the $12.5 price also includes a reworked tranny. The gauge referenced above is not available for purchase; and won't be. They (Spoon) only made a couple for display and their cars.

Just make sure the tech checks them everytime you get an oil change.

Good Luck
