Dim Sum Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 I was wondering what's the max rev that n/a could reach? 80k or 75k? Sorry for the noobie question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Rev? If you're talking rpm I'm assuming you mean 7.5k or 8k? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave17 Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Rev? Rpm? Whaaaaaaaat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonytotheB Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 It says 9krpm on mine but turns red at 7krpm I think. I have never gone over 8 but I think I need to to keep it in the 200bhp range. I always shift to early. Have you looked at your rev limiter? What's the top value? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 You might get 8k but not for long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustGav Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 I would have thought high 8s, purely because people have taken the TT lumps that far (and further). However you won't see that rev range with a stock ecu, and then we start going down the route of putting a standalone in an NA.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 14k I think most engines are tested to. Won't last long though. Care to post a coherent question? ECU, Built? Revs or Mileage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dim Sum Posted June 20, 2010 Author Share Posted June 20, 2010 Sorry about the rev thing. Yes its the rpm. Everything is stock and on the rev counter it goes up to eight so to be on the safe side seven k is a good bet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 If everything on your car is stock it won't go over 7200rpm iirc. If you want to go higher on a stock engine with stock turbo's it won't really get you much but I guess it is relatively OK as my Mines ECU has an 8k limit..... I know they can be a bit mad but I don't think they would overkill it (might be wrong). I would say 8k for stockish engine, mine hasn't blown up yet. If you build the head, & engine internals 10k rpm hasn't been unheard of. This is a ridiculous amount of money to spend to get to this level though, and I don't know what the rebuild requirements are at this level.

bluecoup Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 not much point in going to 8k if peak torque and rpm are 4 and 6k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Not much point in going to 7.2k either then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Snaps Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 ^Yes there is... The drop in power after those peak points won't neccesarily be a larger drop than changing up a gear too early (dropping the revs lower than the powerband). A stock NA won't go over 6800rpm, 7200 for vvt-i supra's. To go higher you'd need some sort of aftermarket ECU. FightersBlue, it doesn't matter what the instrument cluster in the dash says it can go up to, it matters what is programmed into the ECU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 doesnt the limiter kick in if you go over the limit ???? mine does FightersBlue, it doesn't matter what the instrument cluster in the dash says it can go up to, it matters what is programmed into the ECU. my speedo says 180 mph can i go that fast or shall i keep it to 165 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dim Sum Posted June 21, 2010 Author Share Posted June 21, 2010 Thanks for the heads up guys. I just wanted to again more information about the car, only had to for a few months since it was imported to the U.K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 not much point in going to 8k if peak torque and rpm are 4 and 6k It would sound pretty special at 10k (so long as nothing was breaking ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
