If you're tuned you can actually alter the settings for both limiters and make the fuel cut the one you hit first. Hitting the fuel cut first will give you the more traditional "banging off the limiter" that people have been used to for years. It is going to be harder on the engine though.
Super helpful response

Not sure if you can take a look below, but based on what you’re saying the 370 rev limiter is different than the one in the 350z (which I was used to years ago)

Two videos... one is a “soft” limiter and one a “hard” limiter. It seems the 370 has neither of these, unless I’m mistaken
