Perhaps the dial thing isn't actually the real rev limiter with the tune and it's in fact more restrictive than it shows.

Overall, love the tune, and the added cold start protection is nice to have along with the other enhancements.
It moves up quickly right when you turn on the motor. Only if it is really cold outside it will remain at 3500 red line. If engine oil starts heating up the red line goes up with it. Also the yellow area is just cautionary, the tach does drop and you can not go past the red area but you can go well into the yellow.
