limiter comes in at 6000 rpm , and its easy to hit when you are paying attention to the road and not the rev counter . i was just asking a genuine question . would have prefered a nice answer , rather than critsism . thanks anyway though

I gave you the answer. I would put the ignition live to one of the things that comes on with the key, eg headunit.

You can connect to the ecu output for the rev counter.

Or give omex a ring and they will advise. 01242 260656
