My rpm limit is set to 7,100rpm... can we run much more on our cars.. im running a t51r

[karl_tate]

i would be running alot more especially with that turbo

[Andy J Conroy]

I was thinking that.. im not sure why its only been set to that.... full boost power bound is literally only 2rpm....  
 
So what do you reckon? im taking it down to rotorworx in portsmouth soon.

[FDAsh]

Did you buy your car after a recent rebuild? Might have been set low to run in.

Some people also drop the limit on the PFCs when leaving their cars at a garage so the people there can\'t rape the car around. Might not have been changed up again.

[karl_tate]

as long as you know its all mapped and feel safe playing around with it then get it upped and the engine is strong, if not wait until you get it to reworx, they will sort you out.

i would say 8k maybe a bit more

If you check on streetfire, there is a video of an FC with a turboed 20B reving to 16k lol if you are needing to rev higher you would need to underdrive the waterpump so it doesn\'t cavitate and I don\'t know what you need to do to stop the OMP exploding lol plus make sure that you have a good fuel pump and injectors

If you check on streetfire, there is a video of an FC with a turboed 20B reving to 16k lol

Which will last for about 3 seconds unless you are very lucky The N/As racing in the southern hemisphere manage to squeeze 13K or so, but thats still **really** pushing it, and with as much trick internal work as you can envisage.

i thought this might be the one thats 10k btw

[m1tch]

Yeah, but thats only what he reved it to lol the shaded area is at 16

[Matt_K]

Yeah, but thats only what he reved it to lol the shaded area is at 16

And my 1.4 peugeot has 140mph clocks... doesn\'t mean it can get there :WaveBye

Nice sound tho at 10K

[BlitzBoy]

you can set the rpm limit to 8100k this what mist fds are set to, just check ya afrs

[hairyhoover]

dont you need clearanced rotors to run that high?

[m1tch]

You would need lightened, clearanced and balanced rotors and probably a custom multipiece e-shaft me thinks. My FC doesn\'t have a limiter lol

[Fendamonky]

BlitzBoy is correct. 8100 is the magic number for stock FD\'s, if you\'re ballsy and your engine is in really good shape you may push 8500. You can easily change the rev limit with a PFC by going into the SETTINGS menu on the commander. I will be setting my revs to 3k (than removing the Commander) when I ship my car back to the states this winter.
 
I\'d be very leery of going above that w/o some serious modification (geared towards raising safe rev\'s) though...
