Deleting the rev limiter for no reason but to over rev your motor in an attempt to launch a rod is a ricer move.

Don't be a ricer. Unless your motor can support it, keep your rev limiter.

most curious, but yea i was just considering this option, but as for an manual swap, id rather save up and build project 240 =P (or in the most extravagant of pipe dreams... an evo...)
wanna keep a fit for what it is, the most badass 5-door fuel efficient zippy car out there
go fits!
