This is what I was thinking also--I wish I got in another run at 5200rpm. It's just a shame that without the raised redline, the time the valves are open is rather short-lived. Too bad there is not an easy way to raise the rev limiter without paying $650 for an ECU upgrade to eek out that extra 500 rpm.

In the Middle eaast/Japanese Maximas thread Ian mentioned possibly getting a ME ECU to see if it would work in US Maximas. I would guess that it probably has a higher redline to work with the VI. I wonder if it would give better power gains since it is made to work with the VI and free flowing exhaust (no cats over there). No idea on what the cost may be though.

I'll be renting a dyno for an hour when I get my VI. This will give me plenty of time to play around with rpm switch. I'll let you know how it goes.

I'll be getting an hour of dyno time too, however most of mine will be spent testing different ECU combos to see how they react to the MEVI.

As far as the ME Maximas go, their redline is the same as ours. You can clearly see it in the video RoadThief posted where he went all the way to 158mph.
