@S2 Tuner - Rev Limiter

[Norrs2]

Does my MRC Custom re-map still have a rev limiter? When giving it a "run out" I noticed a couple of times the rev counter go up to over 7500 rpm (by accident) when not clocking the rev counter quick enough.

Obviously, I don't want to damage the Engine by not paying attention. I know, I know, I should be able to tell by ear now but it's only in the lower gears when it just goes up so quickly

Anyone else's do this?

Yep, fear not. I think all the B5 cars do it, mine goes to 7800 on the rev counter but its not accurate as VAG-COM says it only every get 7220. My limiter is 7200.

I'm sure an MRC person will verify this for you

i have mrc custom map and hit limiter last night ! so am sure it still has one ..couldnt tell you what rpm it is though

Had the same fear when I had the MRC400...couldn't find the limiter where I thought it should be and worried I'd blow the thing up!! Needless to say once I got used to the upgrade and stopped worrying I soon found that it had one, higher than I thought it'd be

Norman, your rev limiter is set at 7200, pretty much a default for my RS4 maps... so no worries, it is still there

And rev counters aren't accurate at all past 7k, my own S4 revs up to 7800 according to the dials, but it is at 7400 and no higher, plus it's a hard cut so it rarely goes above 7400, maybe 7420 but that's it. Stage 3 S4s are also pretty much default at 7200.

HTH,
