There's a reason why your vehicle has a rev limiter. I wouldn't suggest removing it as it would be easy to damage/destroy engine internals doing this. It is possible to do but messing with the factory ECU in any way could cause Subaru to deny a warranty claim if you were to have any issues in the future.

 

You want to get rid of the rev limiter? uhhh...... why?

Will this or can this void your warranty...... Yes.

 

... what?

The fuel cutoff (rev limiter) is at a higher rpm than redline....

Is there anyway to remove the rev limiter

Yes.

so it can rev all the way to redline?

It already does.

If so, will this void my warranty?

I would certainly hope so.

I'm still unclear what you'd like to do though, because the car can redline as-is, right now. If you cannot reach redline there is something likely wrong with your particular car, and if you post the symptoms maybe someone can help you?

 

My guess was the OP was wanting to rev his car all the way to bury the rpm needle at like 9k rpm. But I could be totally wrong in my assumption. You know what they say about assuming lol

 

Is there any power to be had in stock form up there though?

 

I don't think so, OP didn't specify what year his vehicle was, but I always thought a stock wrx/sti ran out of steam before redline anyway. Again all just speculation on the OP's post

 

You can change the rev limiter in the tune.. but as everyone already said, I don't know why you would. The rev limiter doesn't kick in until the car is already beyond redline.

 

Sorry forget tot mention. I have a 2016 WRX Limited and when I have an aftermarket exhaust and when i am sitting in park I would like to be able to redline to 6700 rpms (which is redline on my engine). I would like to hear the engine rev up and I'm curious if it takes a Cobb tune or anything like that.

 

Do you have a CVT? Is that what this is about?

Yes I have a CVT. When I rev the engine it stops at 4000RPMs

 

Plus you look like a douche.
