Result: Those with more money will still have better engines.

Re your last comment- I don't think anything will change that!
The DFV engined F1s are already limited and I am told this does reduce rebuilds, which I think are £25k a pop. And yes, engines are optimised to give best torque and power in the Rev range restricted to!
I don't know much about the "Rev limiter" required but it looks expensive. Not sure if it is best choice or someone did a good selling job......
