Been thinking of getting a rev limiter, does anyone here use one, if so any recomendations or known issues?

Demon Tweeks seems to have a good selection.

Thanks

Possibly a fuel cut one if it's a Link

Not (imo) a big issue for normal use but if you're autotesting bouncing off the limiter a lot it might be. I know Chris thinks it might be a factor in his repeated failures

Now confirmed the link doesn't cut fuel when rev limiting. My failures remain a mystery.

I have the stock ECU att he moment but soon to get a G3 Link installed.

My thought was to get one to protect in 1st and 2nd gear.. set the rev limit to say 6k.

It also sounds pretty cool.. bouncing off the limiter :)
