what does your hybrid/williams rev out at?

[matt_clio]

my hybrid revs out at about 6400-6600 not quite sure but i thought isnt it a bit low ? my old valver revs out at 7200???

 

[nath17t]

the 2.0 liter has a lower rev limit than 1.8 16v because is has a longer throw on the crank

 

[Hollister]

I think my shift light comes on at 8k

the std williams limits @ 6400 mate,with a re map you will hit 6900 usually,but i wouldnt suggest going any higher. my 1st valver revved to 7700 with a hill power re map lol

my old hybrid was still making power @ 6800,so its worth the higher limit,imo of course

 

[Fred@BTM]

my megane/spyder/williams hybrid revs to 8000

 

[Martin]

old one did 7300 on stnd btm end....would'nt go higher

 

[wayneclio16v]

duno mine hasnt got a rev counter but sounds high whatever a group n is ?

 

[Dan@SJM]

7800 is a group n.

mines being set to 7400. as Renaultsport themselves say the pistons fail over 7200...

Where does RS say that Dan?

Data I have doesnt indicate that figure.

And if it did, why would you set your limiter beyond that?

 

[ben_p]

LOL!

good job it's a track car lol

Williams safe limit is apparently 7400rpm and even that is pushing it on stock internals. Sounds about right to me, as the megane had a 7k limit as standard which must be perfectly safe.

 

[stan*]

yeah on stock internals I wouldnt want to push one past that. I usually set soft-cut at 7300. Crank is fine, its the rods/bolts i worry about mainly.
The thing is, unless youve got stupid-ish cams, you wont be making power there, making it pretty pointless in terms of performance.

I think RS quote 8000 as safe limit for pistons, that may not be continious though, but i cant find the bloody cd to verify that.

I'll have to find the thread with where it said that in.

Im not a limiter queen, so having it set slightly higher wont harm.

so where is the best place to get a remap/chip/limiter raised? i dont want to go to high just seems that it revs out to early!

 

[Russ_16v]

id say hill power mate,nick hill built that engine and mapped both my 1.8 16v and my hybrid,and with swapping ecu'sd bk and forth with my mates std willy ecu (both had same mods) made such a difference so most def hill power, www.hillpower.co.uk tell him russell sent ya lol
