a 2ZZ GE will not engage lift or rev above 7000rpm if the engine is not at a sufficent temperature or warmed up enough. The latest version of the 2ZZ in the corolla XRS has a rev limiter set a 8450rpm.
The engine was warmed up and I do have the latest 2zz engine. I have a 05' Corolla XRS.
Also if you running low octane fuel or the ECU determins there to be an excessive amount of detonation the Rev-limiter will be engaged
I always put in Premium unleaded fuel in my car, hopefully it is. I knwo that there are some cas stations that have dumped regular unleaded fuel in there Premium unleaded tanks, even though it is illegal. Is there a way Ican fine out ifmy fuel is premium unleaded? If not is there a octane booster that I can add to my car that is safe to use?

well - you cant void your warranty by tripping the rev limiter... its there to stop you damaging your engine.
But again - where did you get the 8000RPM figure from? I dont know of any other Toyota with such a high redline.
Well if you look at any Celica GTS or corolla XRS or any right up on them, even looking at the Tachometer, it shows that Redline is Over 8,000RPM. Ibelieve it's someting like 8,125 or 8,250. The corolla XRS has the same motor as in the Celica GTS except that instead of 180 HP it's detuned to 170, well actually 165 with the new Standard they use to mesure horespower. Also if you look at a Corollar brochure online or at the dealer you will see that max HP is attained at 7,600 RPM. Fidgets, you being the administrator should know that!

is the red line actually at 8.000 rpm?
have you verified this with toyota?
A friend of mine owns one and we where out one day driving and he was curious to see if the engine would rev that high. Well at 7,000 RPM the limiter cut in and my friend and I where very shocked. I didn't beleive it so I took it for a spin and it did the same thing! My friend wants to notify toyota but he is afraid that if he does he could void his warranty. Then again Toyota is to blame for LYING to there owners that the engine can rev that high. Even in the brochure it says that the engine get full power at 7,600 RPM. How can this be when it cuts in at 7,000RPM. On the RPM gauge redline starts after 8,000. What should my friend do?? Should he go to the dealer or call toyota direct?? PLEASE HELP

How can the Corolla's XRS Engine cut off come in at 7,000RPM when Redline is at 8,250RPM? Why does that do that?
Cut off at 7K RPM

What is MMT? Can you recommend to me a certain type or name of a octane booster that I can add to my gas tank?
You should have turned him in and found another job. What he did was uncalled for and he should of been put in the slammer and been fined, but then again I don't know what the laws where back then? How far back are we talking about??
