I am really curious about his over-revving mis-shift and the engine reliability that he is still enjoying
Just like to hear a confirmation from him ![Wink](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)

Ok, back to topic: Yes, I have over-revved it, and the engine is still running as strong, as efficiently and as smoothly. Like Jtso, I've done a compression test, and the numbers were excellent too. Never had any issues with the dealer either.

My old prelude didn't even have a rev limiter... so I managed to over rev it a bit when doing some good ol' fun burnouts.
Haven't done it on my TSX, but as a mechanical engineer, I can tell you that I agree with what you guys are saying. The engine can run at a higher RPM without damage, just - for not that long.
When Honda validated the F20 (s2k), it ran for over a week straight with 1/2 oil at 500 rpm over redline before the engine stopped functioning... I would expect the K-series to do the same if not better.
