How good is the stock rotor with the rev limiter in it? Is it reliable, does do what it is supposed when it is supposed to consistently?
I am currently running a non-rev limited rotor, but found myself wishing for some sort of limiter at the last autocross as the valves were floating! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) |

Get the rev-limiting rotor. It's only like $20 which is dirt cheap considering it may save your engine. It is reliable and consistent and works well. It works by grounding out the voltage from the coil, which isn't the best method, but your other alternative is to spend 2 or 3 hundred for a new ignition system which has the ability to do rev limiting. I had a non rev limiting rotor when I first started autocrossing 6 years ago. I remember looking down once at my tach and seeing 6500rpm. I immediately bought the rev limiting rotor and have used it ever since.
