Is there a way to make the rev limiter inactive?

I know with some chips you can raise it but I don't know if you can completly disable it.

By the way thanks for the shim. My truck runs great now with it in. I didn't see the point in buying 1500 of them if I don't own a bb gun

yes it's all in the chip. Over revving though can cause damage (valve train contact with piston). Plus our engines are not terribly powerful at the red line. Diesels are much different than gassers. Really power wise you have a long way to go before the rev limiter is holding you back.
