Happy new year....RX7-FD-13B.

Few weeks ago,.....after a road tuning session (i am tuning my car with apexi power-fc)
0,9bar (13psi) and 8800rpm rev limiter.
It seems like a couple hundreds rpm more,....wouldn't hurt it........

Very cool vid but why are you bouncing the rev limiter like that?

Its one thing to hit boost, then bounce the limiter because you're trying to regain traction but it looks like you're just revving it to redline JUST to bounce off the rev limiter.

Thank you all for your kind words.
Also, i respect every ones opinion.

When i go to the dyno i will post an other video.
I will not stop before i reached the 30psi barrier.

Be careful of flying rotors,....perhaps one of them it will be mine.

I think I'd be more worried about a flywheel explosion.

In order not to touch the rev limiter i think that i have to set him on 9200-9300rpm.
I will do that when i will go to the dyno.

my Rotors, counterweights and crankshaft are perfectly balanced and the flywheel and clutch is a set of double OS GIKEN Aluminium Cover type,....so no problem over there either....

It is in my character to expect everything bad,....so when something good happens, makes me a very happy man.

You all can understand by now that the good thing is, not to set my precious rotors and other things in orbit,....around the earth...
