Is the car in gear or in park? If the car is in park it wont over rev itself, its a safety feature.

I have an 04 too. It's one of the new "safety features" along with that stupid seat belt chime. You can redline it when you're above 5 mph...but not below. So people don't blow the motor trying to do a friggin' burnout.

It's normal. Not to worry.

That's normal. I never tried it with my Civic but it's like that too with my Prelude. Well, don't rev your engine that high when your car fully stop. It just won't do you any good.

Whoa...

Where'd that come from? Who said anything about the D17 being a shitty motor?

Revving to 5k is MORE than enough to enduce a stoplight sprint around these parts.

All I said was, why would you NEED to rev it up HIGHER?

who said we are trying to race anyone? u just pulled this outta ur *** cause ur getting defensive about why we're asking you why rev the hell outta ur engine in park.. most of us have aftermarket exhausts and 3k is loud enuf for the car next to you to hear.. if you really want attention then 4.. but why go above 4 doesnt get that much louder does it? I never race anyone anyway, so when I rev its just cause I like the sound, in that case 3-4 is plenty for me
