Re: Rev limiter for EA?
man trust me there is no limiter at 6k
when doin some demos for mates ect had it pointing directly down ( few cm past the red witch ends at 6 i think

however , is there anyway to adjust the ecu to limit the rpm before redline?

whyterider: i do have a tacho thats why i wanted the rev limiter!!!! coz if i didnt have one i wouldnt know its goin past 5000rpm so i wouldnt worry about it

Re: Rev limiter for EA?
Have your tacho calibrated Bozza, I can assure you that with an EA serI manual computer, mine used to cut out pretty much bang on 6k. And my tacho has been calibrated.

Re: Rev limiter for EA?
Have a look through the Yellow Pages, there's a listing in there for tacho/speedo calibraters.
