this question has been on my mind ever since
Sup FD owners. My question is if you raise the rpm redline from 8000 to 9000k does it make any difference,
i was thinking it would help out with acceleration, but im guessing it would be to much for the 13B-TT |
A stock ported 13b-rew will stop making power past 7000
7200rpms is the furthest ive seen it go before dropping off |
Why not go with 10,000?

thanks but i was talking about raising the rpms does it make a difference performance wise
never mind i found the anwser |
repost

I would figure the only time to actually raise the RPM's is if you port the engine, Reason : Some porting will rendure your performance at low rpms and you will only have that power on high rpms, like Bridge porting. you wont see your true horsepower until 5000k
|
well i rev mine to like 8400, its the only time vtack would engage..
|
it wouldn't help acceleration...the SHORTER your gear ratios, the quicker the revs. the longer the ratios, better top end.
|
^^not really
its all relative but in general, you are right.. the shorter the gear ratios, the quicker the revs and most of the time, that means a lower top speed..but vice versa with longer gear ratios, better top end to what degree? lets say you have a 2004 celica 6 speed, longer gear ratios than the 5 speed obviously but that doesnt really mean it has "better" top end.. i mean the 6th gear is pretty much pointless due to the lack of power it needs to actually move that car in its 6th gear.. but i get your point though |
This thread blows, for more reasons than I care to list. Jim, I am surprised you were so gentle :)
