lol... dayum... that sucks. I shouldve just bought a manual

 

I know because I've personally put over 100 RX-8's on several dynos and none of them were using the Pettit Reflasher. (even one that had the Pettit SC)
E-manage: check
Int-X: check
Cobb AP: check

that relasher inferior; trust me.

 

lol you have an auto?

 

to the Smart Mobile BATMAN!!!

 

ahh man!!! lol.

 

My 6MT HAD a speed limiter and I got rid of it with Hymee's pro tuner

 

lets go robin!!

 

maybe it is... on a serious note i really have no idea. I know of no one personally that has tuned with it so its hard to really say. Only ones I know is Pettit themselves.. And its "theirs" so they will try to sell it becuz its their product. Someone besides them should give it a shot

 

I'm not trying to put down the reflasher or argue with you but the AccessPORT really is the best tuning tool out there.
Cobb has spent tons of time developing it and it has been used with LOTS of success.

It's easy to use, it's constantly getting updates, we have an experience tuner, it's cost effective, it data logs, it does it all.

 

i know this. im actually in the process of ordering one. But the speed limiter thing was hindering me... But now that I know that ill prolly be stuck at 125, im ordering it this friday(which means ima keep this damn car)

 

yeah freak i would trade in your rx8 for the new one. 2010. cuz they some nice cars!

 

forum member: sosonic

ask him about lifting the speed limiter.

he's the only one that has claimed to have gotten rid of the limiter

 

my post was invisible ?

 

that's what happens when everybody puts you on "ignore"

 

Indeed, nice trick

 

thanks for the help.. ill get at him asap.

 

Perhaps it's a 6AT thing... Only limiter on my 4AT was the 7500 rev limit... And the AP moves that nicely.

Any way you cut it this thread is full of fail

 

Some of the '04 4AT's did not have it but I will tell you the 4AT '05's have it.
Again the only 4AT that I know that doesn't have it is Phils8. Your the second one.
My '05 shuts off at 125. I never make into 4th gear.

 

I purchased my a/t 8 in 03 and took ownership in late 03 but my car is listed as an 04. It has no speed limiter and never has had one. My 8 has seen 153 MPH. At that speed the aerodynamics of the car are gone because it becomes airborne. Now I guess that could be called a speed limiter . I argued this point out several times before and it took a drive in another 04a/t to show me that some have a speed limiter but most I have been in do not have one.
My guess is that if there were a large up roar about the limiter that Jeff (or Copp) could find a way around it. The Pettit flash does not address this, as again it is limited to some 04 models (or so I hear).

 

so yours is automatic?

 

2006 6 speed auto, it has seen over 125mph on a flat road.

/thread

 

If your asking Phil, yes it's an a/t.

 

why phil?

 

ive gone 110 easily, to scared to push it further. i will once i go to the track. the reason why i wen 110 on the freeway was becuse i work at 4 am and no ones on the road.

 

Well your from California ........ Yea I would be hesident to go too fast there. I would never go that fast in Las Vegas (too many Cali visitors ) but then there are roads between places (towns) that you never see another car on them. Ask the bunch that came to the Las Vegas meet.
