Rev Limiter

[vickiw106 1]

i have just installed a set of dellorto carbs onto a group A head

 

does anyone know what a standard 1.6 gti rev limiter is set to?

 

and also is it the ecu that controls the ecu, if so does it cut the spark or fuel

 

any help would be good

 

thanks

When you fit any type of carbs you remove the standard Rev Limiter.

 

If you want to keep a rev limiter you will need something like the ones Demon Tweeks sell. (sorry cant remember the make!!)

Armtech, Omex, Lumenition etc etc...

i know i need to remove the rev limiter,

 

thats what i am saying i need to know if its the ecu that cuts spark or fuel (or neither) to operate the rev limiter.

 

the way i have my system set up i can remove the ecu all together and run a switchable live to the fuel pump.

 

i already have spark with out the ecu connected.

I believe it is controlled by the ECU so when you fit the carbs it removes the rev limiter.

 

Yes you are right I have just stripped back my wiring loom and have also removed the whole wiring from the ecu plug that fed back into the engine. Its still working!!!!
