This kind of point would be more effective if you provided a search string that yielded the needed info. Show him how easy it is.

how did you reset the ECU? unplug the battery? the rev-limiter is hard coded into the firmware, it wont change unless you re-flash the ECU.

RX8Soldier apparently reset the ECU to fix the rev limiter by searching Google for the right kind of oil.
