lol.

have not filmed yet cause it's hard to keep the engine idling while filming the sound at the same time.

i will try again, tonight.

here it is fellas:

Engine at idle. Foot on gas to keep the car from stalling. (note there is a loud knock that happens in the clip also)



This is the sound of the exhaust. Foot on gas to keep the car from stalling. (note there is a loud click/knock sound as well)

Sounds like an old Ford we used to have when I was at my last job

Photofucket.

Well, I'm not listening to it then.

Still trying to get the hang of this new weird thing called "the internet" are you pops?

No, just my dislike of bloatware.

Seriously, who makes a site consisting of so much sh*t.
Apart from Zuckerberg.

(I digress, off topic.)

That sounds like its running on 3 cylinders, check your coilpacks, leads.

Also is your map sensor plugged in?

All of the above ^^^

Check all electrical plugs.

Have you done any work on it recently?

I agree, I have never hit 8000-8750rpm in any of my gears.

Mivec in 4th is a beautiful thing

Redline is 8250......

I didn't used to like taking mine past 8k. Generally hit the shift up on tip at about 7,700/7,800 and it would shift pretty much on 8k.

half the fun is playing the game - how close can u shift before it red-lines?

Not in mine, I have no rev limiter, at 8900 my engine "drops off the edge" so to say.
I have pushed it to find the "edge", thats why I shift when my LEDs all flash at 8000.

Ummm... I know you're the infinitely better mechanic and all Phil, but wouldn't there be a limiter at 8,250 for a reason?

Hence why he doesn't shift past 8k.

I was thinking more along the lines of why would it be de-limited in the first place

Couriosity got the better of me, I just had to know where the "edge" was as I don't have a limiter.
I do have a cold engine limiter at 4000, but no full engine limiter.
I change when my lights tell me too which is at about 8250-8500 by the time I react to the 8000rpm flashes.

Normal cold limiter is at 6k.
