I thought you are able to rev high when it's cold? It just won't let you Vtec/ go WOT getting there.

Stupid mistake, but we've all made mistakes behind the wheel. Give the guy a break.

I've heard that BOOM once before also with a cold acceleration. The key with a mistake is to learn from it.

The sound made when an engine suddenly has fuel supply cut at 6,000 rpms!

Should be closed. Nothing else productive can be said other than let the car warm up.
