I would like to remove my rev limiter. I have already disconnect my idle stabilization module, should I do something with the black/white and red/white wires hanging from switch boxes. It seems with this module disconnected I still have a rev limiter in place. Is the rev limiter built it to the oil warning module?

Just unplug it. Its its own module separate from the oil warning module. You can remove it from the block but its not going to rev limit anything if its not plugged in. If the idle module is unplugged and you still are hitting a wall its because your motor is out of power. Shave the heads down to 30 CC's or so and run good gas and the RPM's will kick up 400-500 ish.
