Guest Hosky Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Hello everyone. Everyone loves pops and bangs right? Could you stick the bee-r rev limiter on the n/a supra? And wouldn't pop an bang with out breaking something like the rocker arms on my old nissan 200? Doh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Yes you can & like with any car it will eventually break something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Yes you can & like with any car it will eventually break something. Thinking about that I doubt there's much to break to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Thinking about that I doubt there's much to break to be honest. I am thinking in the line of constantly bouncing off the rev limiter as to cause the fuel cut I am assuming you need to hold it there for it to engage? The NA engine is very robust but I am pretty sure it would shorten the life of the engine if used constantly. Could be completely wrong in my line of thinking.

The NA engine is very robust but I am pretty sure it would shorten the life of the engine if used constantly. Could be completely wrong in my line of thinking. I may be wrong but I believe the bee thing changes the limit if you choose. So you could set the limiter to 5krpm. One of the other features it has, which is what the op is talking about, is to cut the spark to a cylinder for one cycle, thus dumping the fuel into the manifold and causing a big bang (anti-lag). Obviously with the N/A this is all for poops and giggles, but the main issue on tubby cars is that it cooks the hotside. If the tubby isn't made for this abuse it will significantly decrease the life. No tubbys = no problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suprakeith Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 I have a bee r fitted to my n/a and have used it plenty times with no problems at all its great fun and does make some serious loud bangs and pops. I have got couple videos of me using bee r, can upload them if you want or you can check my previous posts as posted them up couple months ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skippyboyo1 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Personaly I wouldn't bother at all. I've always wondered why people raise the limit on the na engine as it makes no difference in performance at all as far as I can see. As others have said your making an engine do something it wasn't designed to do, I often air my thoughts about the na engine. If its reliability your after then that's the engine to go for, mines has years of abuse and if serviced properly they go and go. Leave the limit I'd say. If you want "pops and bangs" the only way to go would be a flamer kit ( spark plug in the exhaust and a switch to retard the timing) HOWEVER you must be 17 or a homosexual to have one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hosky Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 I want to lower the rev limit. The bee r is adjustable. It will only be used for pops an flames. No launch control or anything like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The GE powercurve has already "turned over" by 5500 so extending the rev limit isn't going to get you any more power unless you do something else to make it breathe at higher RPM.

No launch control or anything like that. Well in that case mate bee r will be fine for what you want, I use the launch control on mine but mainly its just a bit of fun when parked up sometimes.

Scott Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Why does everyone insist on not reading anything prior to them posting? Who mentioned raising the rev limit? He wants it for pops and bangs, not to increase the limit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might have caused that by mentioning the word "rev limiter" I looked it up afterwards & looks like it just cuts the ignition though I am sure I have bad things about them: http://www.nengun.com/bee-r/rev-limiter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VERY bad IMO, if not looked after properly. As with all anti-lag if you overdo it, you'll kill your turbo. On an N/A though? It's just a gimmick, there's no real functionality other than holding the revs at a certain level for launching. Of course there's the anti-lag feature which pops an bang but other than popping and banging it does nothing else as there's no tubby to anti-lag lol.

Ill prob only ever use it once or twice but still.... im just childish. big pops and bangs amuse me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slutters Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Just gets a bit embarrassing when you get 'mate that sounds awesome, let's have a look at the huge turbo you must have on it to get that noise' 'Well you see' ... :blush: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally it's the overrun that causes it. It's just put to use with tubbys, that's all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hosky Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 oh yeah i can well imagine..... But the answer will be.... sounds great for a non turbo.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
