    Not to be a dick, is traction control on? Also you can sometimes adjust rev limit in the handheld but it's not by gear so if you can rev it out past 5500 in 3rd-5th then the limiter isn't your issue.

    Thank you.
    What do you mean by back pressure?
    If rev limiter is set, should start to flutter / lay down when it hits the limiter.

    Traction is always on. And I was to worried to test it in 3-5 in case something bad happened

    I get a pushback that doesn’t feel right

    Good point, yes sometimes peeps mis diagnose issue or limiter for TC intervening.

    If unsure, especially since it's boosted, strongly suggest you get someone in the know to drive it and give an opinion. Gimme a shout come nice weather, happy to go for a buzz in it with you.
    If limiter is not set, all working as it should, under boost should be having to control yourself not buzzing it to 6500 or more. Like seeing Jeff n Chuck at Beatty n Woods roll their eyes when we talk about how at Mosport / up the hill, Cobra saw 7-7500 shifts to pull mph I was shooting for up n over the hill. With Whipple, no need to spin it that hard.

    When the weather warms up I’ll take it to you to take a look. I’m no mechanic, I could just be getting over ridden by traction. I’m not a mechanic so I don’t push things that don’t want to be pushed

    I think that's your traction control kicking on my good man, especially if you're testing it now when the roads are frozen. In second try to accelerate using 1/2- 3/4 throttle past 5500 RPM. If it goes beyond 5500 with light throttle it's not a limiter issue it's a case of TC stepping in. Because you have a centri blower it makes more boost with higher RPM. Not super uncommon for it to try and break loose in lower gears at higher RPM.

    Under boost, IMHO, TC should always be shut off to ensure it's not just taken a huge gulp of fuel n air only to see TC system shut it down and you lift a head or worse.
