@btrak08 are you fucking idiot thats not the point, the idea is to launch at a safe rpm, to not fuck up differential and other parts. Besides launching at this rpm will have you spinning unnecessary keeping you in the same spot. Good luck with your car lasting if you keep revving it up like that like a moron.
yeah.... good stuff for rear-wheel/ awd but for front wheel the best launch you kinda ride the clutch a bit. If you dump the clutch at 7k your just going to spin tires and watch the taillights of the guy beside you.
thats nice and all, but why pay money when i can rev like that by myself? in order to "control the launch", the rpm's would need to be lower... otherwise a waste of money in my opinion.
@lockheed08 because this way instead of having to find the sweet spot of barely putting your foot on the throttle to sit at 6k or wherever you wanted, you can now just put your foot to the floor and it holds it where you set it until you let the clutch out...
@maddmatt02 ok your right about both those reasons, but the purpose of the limiter being low is to achieve the highest possible power with the lowest possible wheelspin. Spinning up the turbo like that will result in wheelspin which can cost u a race. Your reasons don't apply to racing from a stop, but from a roll your perfectly right
@lockheed08 racing from a roll you wouldnt use a launch limiter at all, but to get boost up you could brake-boost, which would just involve holding the brake a little to stop from accelerating while you are applying more throttle to spool up the turbo. and have you ever been to the track, it is way sticker than you would think, first time I took my civic I bogged it hard in 1st. then I overcompensated and spun a little much in first the next run. not saying the RPM he chose is best though.
@lockheed08 and also if you had a turbo, more air in = more air out = faster spinning turbo...
if you are BARELY on the throttle (and you barely have to be in neutral to rev) and are holding at 6k, alot less air is going through the engine than if you have the throttle plate wide open, so when you finally do dump the clutch the turbo is already spinning alot faster than launching your way
@maddmatt02 Thats why the make a thing called fuel and ignition cut. Instead of cutting just fuel at the launch limiter, it cuts the ignition too making the turbo spool off the line.
well for one stock redline on an si is 8. 2 the vtec system engages at 6. with a chip u can lower it and increase redline so it only prevents folks from blowing their motor
Facepalm...oil life doesn't mean shit on these cars. U have to reset it every oil change and ppl get lazy to reset them. Only oil monitor anyone should need is a fuckin dipstick.
that's not what this clip is showing. You are referring to the factory stationary limiter @ about 5500 rpm. With HONDATA FlashPro u can change that limiter like this person did.. Although I have no idea why he set it so high. It's useless to launch at such high rpms you'll just fry the tires.. 0_o
I have an FN2 (euro R) and the limiter for the protection of vtec is set @ 4500 (in neutral ofc). Definetely not a lauch system cause the car doesn't launch if you dump the clucth @ that rpm. You 're off the line with 3000-3500 if you do that. Anyway anything over 5000 will definetely fry the tires on public roads!
well the FA5 and FG2 (US Si) have the limiter at 5500 rpm in neutral. I'm just saying that the FlashPro that he is using with his ecu allows him to remove that limiter. Just like it let's him lower the vtec engagement window and extend the rev limiter past 8000 (US standard). It's not a factory system, that's all I'm tryna say :hiding:
It's not even at the redline (6600RPM), and even if it were, all cars, Hondas especially are engineered to handle abuse. That's what rev limiters are for. They protect the engine from over revving and causing damage.
@ghettodriftmonkey1 acually it does.....its basically launch control.....and basically....thats all there is too drag racing...if u have terrible traction.....ur times are gonna suckk
@oaeproductions Again, as I said. Cool noises doesn't mean cool drag times. I could throw a rev limiter on a 1G-FE Mark II , being a straight six it'd sound quite cool. Plus it would have one cool limiter. By going what you're saying. If I put drag radials on it, it would do some nasty 0-60 times. Right?
Wow this car sucks fuck you

Not a launch limiter. Its a limiter to protect the vtec system from being enabled when you are in neutral.

It's not even at the redline (6600RPM), and even if it were, all cars, Hondas especially are engineered to handle abuse. That's what rev limiters are for. They protect the engine from over revving and causing damage.
