7.2 i fink

 

[weakboy2]

yeah thats it.

 

[Rumel786]

seriously?as i went to 8.5k?but i have standard ecu lol!

 

[Foggy]

Thats not good dont the jam ecus and other after market ecus let it rev to 8.5 you might have a after market one.

Utterly impossible on a stock ecu. Only units like the Jam, Blitz, or Mines ecus for the 4efte allowed for a 8500 redline. You may need to take a careful look at your unit.

i had a look the other day and i could see its got a green stamp on (looks like standard) will have a closer look tomorrow.

Or it may have been remapped in Japan or something. My cousins does the same, the importer told him it's been remapped and yes it is quick.

i thought standard ones are not re-mappable?the only history i know about my car it its an ex track car.

If there is a secondary daughter board inside the ecu itself, that is an indication that you have an upgraded aftermarket unit. Has you speed and fuel cut been removed (running more than 12.5psi of boost, can reach speeds over 180kmph) ? Do you feel a surge of power around 5000rpm that feels like another turbo started to spoolup?

 

[Rumel786]

not sure boot 5k thing as my td04 kicks in around 4.5 lol but do get alot of wheel spin at 5k!also i can go over 180km and im currently looking for some purple vacuum hosin,once i get it i will be runnin a bar of boost,current running 0.7 directly off turbo to external wastegate.

They are not re-mappable, but the starting map for the aftermarket units are done in japan. After that any changes to parts or settings and the ecu uses the settings from the stock board to find a safe workable tune best suited for the new settings (within a reasonable limit), but without the stock ecu's restrictions.

dude why are u livin in barbados lol you need to be in leeds so u can have a closer look and explain it all to me lol will rep once im on pc tomorrow guys

You sir, do not have a stock ecu. Once you are not running a unit like the hks sld, then these are, without a doubt, tell tales signs of an uprated aftermarket unit.

 

[Rumel786]

where should i look to find a sld?

A Speed Limit Defencer is typically found under the dash wired in to the ecu. A SLD alone will not explain your ability to rev to 8500. That is purely the ecu's handiwork.

 

[Rumel786]

just were lookin at this on hksusa,regardless of having a sld still a stock ecu shouldnt let me rev to 8.5k revs which i assume is an definately aftermarket one?

 

[Rumel786]

i will rev it tomorrow again just to be 100% sure and will try to take a vid of it tomorrow lol ooww another goodie i didnt know about in my car!

 

[Guye]

Aftermarket ecu's will still carry the stock green 4efte sticker, but there is normally another one with the tuning company's logo/name.

 

[Rumel786]

love the tgtt background in pic lol will be definately having a look at my ecu tomorrow
