2.8 Redline?
2.8 Redline?
Hey, I was wondering, whats the redline on a 89' Beretta?
When I "beat" (I don't really beat the car, just a occasional breaking tires loose fun) the GTU I don't ever really bring it over say 35-3800rpms, is that close to redline or what would be the redline on these cars?

I'd go 5k tops, after 4800rpm you have passed your peak power. I thought you had a 3sd auto.

It's called redline because it's literally a red line...

I have a digital dash, so there is no literal redline. If there is I missed it completely.

The bars IIRC will change to red when you get into the red line area... but I could be wrong, I've never had a digi dash.
