Any Damage? help
Hey i just got my S a week ago and noticed that ive been shifting well before redline so i jumped on the highway and redlined... well i wasn't paying attention (weaving lanes) and went past redline. Is this gonna cause any damage??? First and only time I did This. Maybe it is in my head but VTEC doesn't feel that noticeable but i think i'm imagining things YOUR INPUT APPRECIATED... I'm scared I LOVE THIS CAR HELPPPPPPPP

you should be fine if you just hit the rev limiter but if you misshifted then you better have it checked out before you drop a valve

The ECU won't allow the car to go past redline and takes percautions in several ways to avoid it. A mechanical mis-shift is another story. This will be followed closely by a blinking CEL if damage was done.
