like the guys above said its all electrical, its a safe guard, when the ecu senses not enough oil pressure and low temp, it sets the rev limit way down, it wont hurt it a couple time but it will start to, your still goin hard before the limiter and with low oil temp and engine temps its not a good idea to drive that hard

might sound stupid after you remind us all about the 3 bars, but I let my car idle for 5 minutes (outside temp around 20c), drive VERY carefully for another 5 minutes shifting @ 3k and as I floor it....you know the rest...what is actually funny is that the REV limiter is not fixed, sometimes it kickes in @ 4k!!!! At least I know I have no water in the engine after reading a few thread today..thank you guys
