Welcome Fred Retired! LOL

Yes there is a rev limiter. No you can't change it in the stock ECM.
You would have to go with one of the aftermarket tuners or aftermarket ECMs to alter it AFAIK

Because you stuck it next to Fred as though 'retired' were your last name. It just struck me as funny. Sorry about the injuries.
Thanks for the answer.
You're welcome
