i was screwing around with sport shift and i forget i was in sport shift (it automatically went down to 1st so i just though i was in auto, stupid me) anyway i bounced off the rev limiter like 3-4 times. how bad is that gonna be for my engine or it is ok and i shouldent worry about it? hey, i got 2nd on my clp going over 100km/h.

Should be ok. That's what the limiter is their for As long as you didn't shift down to 1st gear going 120km/h and the needle didn't go INTO the red at like 9k rpms then you should be fine

the engine should be fine ... that's what the limiter is for, to prevent engine damage

Honda is very good at engine management. They set the rev limiter at a conservative level to protect the motor. Should be no problem,

I think you are screwed, you will probably have to change the tachometer fluid.

LOL.... I did the same thing yesterday going through the mountains up around Oneonta! Actually did it more than once. Also on one short stint, I redlined 2nd and it wouldn't shift no matter what. I had to slow down before it would come out of second. That has happened before too. Ohhh for a 6MT.......

happens all the times... dun worry about it, worry when you didnt have it, or it didnt limit your rev... now thats scary!

I would get someone with an OBDII scanner and see if you have set the code for over-reving the engine. If so, clear it before you take it into Acura Dealer.
