Hey guys was wondering if this is normal. When I rev my engine while the car is parked or stopped in neutral it revs up like normal. If I am cruising down the road and drop it into neutral and try to rev up the motor its sluggish and the rpms dont want to climb as quickly. IS THIS NORMAL ?? ANYONE NOTICE THIS BEFORE ?![Uhh...](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/1387914497.gif)

Its normal, even if you floor the gas pedal it stops at a certain rpm. I'm assuming to protect the engine. If my I/H/E combo and whenever I drive by my friends, I want to throw the car into neutral and hit the limiter but I remember the car wont allow it

Thanks for the quick reply buddy. I was assuming it was a protection mechanism but wasnt sure. Now with the exhaust sometime you want to rev it up on a friend or whatever and it doesnt climb normally. LOL

Just to hear it or to rev up on a buddy driving next to me for fun . Doesnt happen regularly but when it did I was a little concerned.

Bring your car to about 4-5500 RPM in third and downshift.
The revmatch on our cars is prettier than any motion picture score.
