Am i freaking out? or is this normal...
Long story short, i got a CEL this morning, didn't think much of it till this shelby parked next to me in a garage started revving. Correct me if i am wrong, but i dont think my car has ever passed the 4k rpm mark while revving in P. Well, it definitely reached 5k, 6k, and 7k rpm while in park when i was revving. Is something wrong?
I am currently running a CATLESS v4 EC tune, no other mods.

It's been established that in P there is an rpm limiter that caps you to 4k or so. Whether the car limits this or not, revving in P or N is not good for the engine. Please avoid.

Thats why i'm confused, it used to limit it to 4k.
But i got the CEL this morning, and now theres no cap? Can't be a coincidence.

i thought if the car is remapped it will rev more in park,i was also told this is one way to tell if your car is remapped,i cannot confirm this though.

I would say don't worry - this happened to me on my car.
Reved it too much at start-up, got CEL, took to the store and they cleared the codes...
All was good and nothing needed repaired.
