I don't think you sounded mean.....sometimes the truth hurts.

It's time to end this thread...if the point hasn't been made by now, it never will.

I agree this thread is very arguemental, everyone is just trying to give suggestions to the OP and everyone agrees differently!

Had the same thought, wonder if it was a different gear

I haven't read all 81 posts, but I have read about 40 of them so far, here's my take. YOU made the mistake not Acura. This over rev has absolutely nothing to with Acura, it has everything to do with your inability to properly shift a MT. Good luck, remember that you aren't going to fool anybody at the dealership, your car will tell them what you did to it.

Thanks for all your input.

Cliff notes:

Guy thinks he may have over reved engine.
Some think he should lie to the dealer,
Some dont.
