But those cool lights on the tach tell me that I can rev to 5k right after I start the car...and then to 7k very soon after.
I actually keep my max revs to 3K or until I hit that first dash on the oil temp gauge so as to get the VANOS up to operating temp. It sounds louder to me (in the typical 3-3,300rpm range) when cold than when warm.
