A rev limiter is a device fitted in modern vehicles that have internal combustion engines. They are intended to protect an engine by restricting its maximum rotational speed, measured in revolutions per minute (rpm). Rev limiters are pre-set by the engine manufacturer. There are also aftermarket units where a separate controller is installed using a custom rpm setting. A limiter prevents a vehicle's engine from being pushed beyond the manufacturer's limit, known as the redline (literally the red line marked on the tachometer). At some point beyond the redline, engine damage may occur.
