Do you mean when the rev counter lights go in reverse as you reach max engine speed? If so, then no sorry but it cant be done.

When the little rev needle reaches the part of the rev counter with '8000' on it, change gear.

I think some guys in the US managed with some sort of aftermarket ECU. LOTS and lots of work though - don't bother

Then the novelty wore off.

When it sounds like the engine is going to self implode. Theres another 2k revs to go...
