fear nothing brother. I, too have 6AT. I pushed it all the way to 8700 rpm once on the second gear(manumatic of course). I felt like i was going to be ejected from my seat because the car was shaking hard. It was scary and fun at the same time. LOL

Is yours chipped? How come the car was shaking hard? I thought rotary is supposed to be near vibration free.
