ok so im tired of not having a tach so im getting one but what do set the red line at and how much can a 22r handle, i found a couple that go to 7thousand rpms, can i go higher, do i want 2? i have no clue wat the max is...now i just use the speedo, 2nd through 20, switch into 3rd at thirty and stuff like that, it sounds as if i can push her more but i dont know?

My '93 22re has a factory tach, the redline starts at 5750 I believe. People say they can "safely" go to 6K RPM, but personally, I wouldnt ever go that high. Plus, my truck doesnt rev much past 5K anyways...but thats just my truck.

The 22r is certainly not much different, if at all.

I would recomend never redlining unless its an emergency or somethin. 22r's are built for low RPM Horsepower output just like any truck motor. I believe the 22re delievers 120 HP at 4000 RPM or close to that which is all the hp it has so yea.

ya thats y i want a tach so i dont have the chance of redlining...i do in my bike but its a sport bike that is supposed 2 lol.....i want to maby push it a little more my biggest thing is fith on the freeway, i cant hear the engine at all goin 70, i dont want to push her 2 much as i have already had a new headgasket because of a sticky thermo..i dont want to risk that again by over revin

Peak flywheel HP is between 112-116 HP(depending on year) at 4800 RPM, and 140 or so lb/ft of torque at 2800RPM on a 22re, and like 96 hp on the 22r. Im not sure about the torque on a 22r.

ok so they do like the highs..makes sence as they are inline engines.....
