Well red line is 7250 and limiter is shortly after. I think it is about 90 in 3rd and as for top of 4th I have never taken it there - 125 in 4th sounds a bit much though.
Have you hit the limiter in yours and what rpm was it?
Also dependent on the year of 172 there were two different inlets and one gave for smoother power delivery and less of a 5k kick - this is all 2nd hand knowledge as mine doesn't really take off @ 5k either and this is what I was told.

As I said m8...defo remap or at least an off the shelf chip...if it was standard it wouldn't do 125 in 4th

I can do 120+ in 4th :s and easy 90 in 3rd!
Only work is matched inlets, Open IK and cat back exhaust! RSTuner for Xmas
Not 100% but I think the phase 1 172s had a slightly different ratio box.....

thanks, i really hope it is save me a bit of money for some mods.
Same. I've topped mine out in 4th many a day and I'm sure it's around an indicated 115mph. Standard. 120+ bones, equals defo raised limit

I suggest checking your speed with a tom tom or similair first just to make sure its not the dials reading out.

If it is a group N/ Rsport Ecu it does rev to about 8k in 4th....slightly less in 3rd.....
Chris
correct mate, ph1's have a longer ratio box, mine will show approx 120 ish (maybe a touch over 122ish) at in inditcated 7000rpm
mines a ph1 too
so id say a re map or more than likely your speedo's out
Bust engine soon!
Geeezzz anyone who uses that power band on stock internals is brave. 7800 is pretty high on these but 8k
:evil:Is the Rsport remap a plug in thing? If yes he might be able to tell by locating it
My moneys on these aftermarket change of dials. Standard car apart from this prob is too much of a coincidence maybe
Nippy white cup
Yeah the Rsport was a direct replacement for the standard ecu. I went to York with just an open ik and about 800miles and got a 15 sec dead 1.4mile....went back about a month later with the rsport added and got a 14.4 with full interior and standard exhaust so it does make a fair old difference.
TBH I vary rarely hit the full 8k except from showing people lol...the extra revs are quite handy on track for holding on to gears exiting bends for slightly longer
Sounds ok too

IIRC I paid £250 but this was back in 2003 so no idea what they run at now

15 secs on 1.4 mile?!?! You must have one of the 'fast' Clios!
Not funny. :nono:

the dials arnt aftermarket they are the ones renault fitted when they run out of sport dials in 2002, something like that, same as dymanique dials. have a road angel and speed is spot on thanks everyone for your opinions and advice . i might have to get a rstuner anyway and when i read the ecu it should be able to tell me, i think.

LOL run out of correct insturment panels your having a laugh. and then to fit the other ones when spiorts aint even made in the same factory is rubbish

Speeds in gears will not dictate wether not the car has had a remap. In gear speeds are dictated by the ratios. A 200bhp car will get the same speed as a 500bhp car if they were the same type of car with the same gear ratios.

So what happens if the remap gives you an increased rev limit then (which is what is being talked about here)?
lol well spotted..excellent contribution to the topic

It's a dull topic - it needed lightening up.
