anyone know where i can find some details about the knightsports ECU?

 

me too i have a chip burner now and i need one

 

yeah...don't buy one off ebay. sorry, that's all I have....I bought one off a forum member that bought 2 in Japan but never got around to installing it.....I hav an SAFC and AVCR and I don't know if it will make a difference if I install it

 

i think i already have one. i have no fuel cut and i've missed gears and over-revved without hitting any kind of rev limiter.

 

You better hope Kevin dosen't read this..

 

yeah since it was the engine i had 6 months before ever taking my car to kevin.

thanks for posting.

 

Rev limiter? Theres no rev limiter in the FC that I know of.

step on the gas and tell me if the engine spins until it blows or if it reaches a certain RPM and bounce back anf forth at that RPM. If you are right the RPMs will continue to increase until the engine blows or the flywheel shatters and comes through the floor decapitating you or at least removing a limb.

 

yes there are rev limiters in fc's but by now many will not work anymore. fuel cut on the rear rotor happens for all turbos and s4 n/a's at 7600 and 8600 for s5 n/a's. i dont know about automatics but im assuming its the same. btw dont waste money on a chip, get a safc...in the long run it is much more useful.

 

wtf

 

That's the guy I was quoting.....lol

 

You ever seen the vid of the guy revving an S4 past 9000 rpm for 10 minutes? Didn't look like there was a rev limiter there to me. Poor car too 10 minutes of that before it blew.

my 91 NA had a rev limiter at 8600

 

ALL fc's have rev limiters as do FD's. IT is a factory ecu internal function. S4's and s5 turbos in general have it right around 7600-8100, everyone's factory tach is off some so this can vary. s5 na's and fd's have it right around 8600-9200.

 

No one has ever backed me up on this before....thanks. Now can you explain why my TII hit 150MPH then the car and the speedo went to 145 then it rose to 150 and it decelerated to 145 and did this 3 times before I let off the gas.....I wasn't hitting revlimiter and I don't thing I was running lean......any ideas?

 

i'd like to find out a definitely rev limiter on s5TII's... because i've definitely been to 8200 rpms on my last motor (per SAFC peak/hold readout)

 

The rev limit should not take effect on a t2 in 5th gear until ~160-165mph...and you usualy don't have the power (or room) to go that fast. I've been at 155 in a t2 and was only at around 65-6700rpm as I recall.

 

how can you find out what the rev limiter is without revving the **** out of your engine?

 

ohhh baby someone play with my butttttttt

 

 

Somehow that made me bust out laughing in front of my computer.

 

oh god my parents are here. mom, i'm gay ohhhhhhhhhhh

 

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ok.........well.... .....u ok man?
