What Rev limiter are you using?
 
:gotme: What is the best rev limiter for a N/A max. Why is yours the best?

tavarish 06-21-2005 10:23 PM

Spelling Police on duty sir :lolrun:

Stock 6,600 is fine
MEVI 7,200 is fine
00 VI 7,200 is fine

Of course, if you add MEVI or 00 VI with JWT cams, you might be able to go higher but that might cause a reliability risk.

mzmtg 06-22-2005 06:07 AM

2300 RPM :Party:

gtr_rider 06-22-2005 06:58 AM

8000RPM, mad vtec y0

texasluva 06-22-2005 10:14 AM

only some of you got the post! I ment MEVI or oovi and an ECU upgrade.I hear that the TS is the best ecu.

JClaw 06-22-2005 10:20 AM

Stock rev limiter with the stock 2002 intake manifold. Feels cut short a bit. Thinking of going with 7000-7100.

NmexMAX 06-22-2005 10:34 AM

texasluva, you should've been more informative in your original post. It was too vague. Why is TS better? Definately better turn around time, but that seems to be about it, they have both shown gains etc.

laylow1988 06-22-2005 10:46 AM

i have mines set to 7200

jwt say 7000 is safe anything over 7000 they will sticker you

NmexMAX 06-22-2005 11:02 AM

NAPhi_Shift 06-22-2005 09:26 PM

stockkkk biatchh, i have no mevi or 00vi so i never really take the car past 6k anyway

maximazation 06-22-2005 10:57 PM

6550 RPM for me here....soon will upgrade to the JWT 7200 ECU once i get my 00VI which should be in about a week...

97BlackSEGold 06-23-2005 06:35 AM

just wondering, what is the limiter set at on a stock 1997 5 speed ecu?

NmexMAX 06-23-2005 07:02 AM

Floor it in nuetral and find out.

~6500.

97BlackSEGold 06-23-2005 12:03 PM

thats ok id rather not

SPiG 06-23-2005 01:08 PM

Without VIM there is no reason to go over 6500. You would never need to except racing in 1st gear. Past 7000-7200 the valve springs start to flake and you risk valve float. The oil pump also starts to die if you stay over 7500 or so too long.

I thought that was on his fully built race motor with 9000rpm limiter :wall:

SPiG 06-23-2005 09:04 PM

I know krismax blew his with his 8000rpm rev limit. The limit of the oil pump might be 8000 or so, but I said 7500 since I have no idea of how high it has to be to start to deteriorate the oil pump. I know the VQ35 oil pump is stronger especially in the new 05 350Z/G35c with 7k rev limiter. It might not have blown entirely from the extremely high reving but if you go that high just be prepared to watch the oil pressure light (guage would be much better) and read how to do an oil pump change.

For the main purpose of this thread, 6550 is fine for the stock IM. Look at this thread to see when exactly to shift http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=288967

Once you get a MEVI or DEK then 7000-7200 would be much better. With valve springs and possibly an oil pump upgrade, 8000 rpm should be fine, though at that point; though cams would be a very good idea since you have to take them out to change valve springs.

speaking of VTEC, my friend has an integra with a fully built B20 (which i borrowed for a week) and he has a 10,700 rpm rev limiter, its kind of scary going that far, but the engine revs so fast, you almost dont notice it, until you hit the cut-off sending you into the steering wheel

PARALLEX 06-25-2005 02:21 AM

Jwt=7200...

damn....a 10,700 rpm redline would be just insane..... :eek:
