It is crude but decipherable. http://babelfish.altavista.com/ At the bottom you can enter in the web address as well as what language you want to go to/from. MazdaManiac 12-02-2003, 04:16 PM All it does is remove the REV limter. They are still researching the ECU for tuning. mikeb 12-02-2003, 04:28 PM thank you I still dont understand it in english Jt-Imports 12-02-2003, 05:23 PM I think you will see some nice ECUs being released offically after AUTOSALON TOKYO this year, before that they are UN-OFFICALLY Available and they do my then take out the REV-limiter sixspeed 12-03-2003, 04:00 AM Not sure what the point of this is, since all dyno tests we've seen have shown power dropping from 9000rpm. Not sure what good a higher rev-limit is without extra tuning to keep the power climbing (or at least levelled off rather than dropping)... -andy- Redshift 12-03-2003, 07:46 AM Originally posted by sixspeed Not sure what the point of this is, since all dyno tests we've seen have shown power dropping from 9000rpm. Not sure what good a higher rev-limit is without extra tuning to keep the power climbing (or at least levelled off rather than dropping)... -andy- For track/autocross type use removing a rev limiter can be an advantage as it will let you hold a gear longer. Power may be falling off, but if it prevents you having to shift up a gear before having to quickly shift back down (i.e. the straight is just a little too long, but you'll have to shift right back down for a corner... your choice is bounce of the limiter for a few seconds or shift twice... both lose time) having the extra RPM over-run can be faster. Other then that...well... not much point to just removing a limiter. MazdaManiac 12-03-2003, 11:27 AM I think the implication is that there is a speed-based rev limiter. BaronVonBigmeat 12-03-2003, 07:17 PM Heh, is the sharp power dropoff at 9000 RPM's due to the engine itself, or the ECU cutting power back? I wonder how much (if any) extra the Renesis is capable of revving without self-destructing...If they could lean out the top end, plus take off the rev limiter and safely go to 10,000 RPM...drool... |
