Well mines had a few other treats (cams/headwork/manifold) that make the higher limiter a virtual must....however I did run a Hillpower chip (6.9k) for over a year when the engine was standard and had no problems..
Yeah, thats why I said get it upped, 6.5k limit is very low for a 16v engine..feels like its just getting going and bang youre going nowhere! Used to hit it a fair bit...but Ive got 7.1k limit now.:devilish:
It is pretty good isnt it...I suppose I take it for granted after a year and a half. Get the rev limiter upped and exhaust and de-cat if you havent already..job done. Enjoy!
yeah, I think you may be right its just in my head I imagine scoobies, evos etc.to be stupidly quick where as in reality they shouldnt be too much quicker than my car....:confused:
...has anyone else got used to the performance of their car and no longer thinks it very quick? I think my cars quite nippy but it doesnt seem to have the brutal acceleration of a quick car like a scooby/evo/cossie or even a Type-R or TT, maybe its the lack of a turbo....but Im just left...
I always get nervous at 130ish and end up backing off, not worth getting caught doing those speeds....youll end up picking up soap in the prison showers!!
