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) |

No problems running them with a Pertronix. I find it helps to have one at the AX kinda like a warning buzzer, if it is on alot I need to shift more. If you are at those high rev's you aren't in the powerband. There is little hp/torque in a 4cyl engine at 6500rpms. The powerband tops out at 5000 rpms so thats where you want to hang out so shifting to 3rd will help on those high speed sections by keeping in hp/torque band (3500-5000). Learn to be smooth shifting and that will help going thru those sections. As posted in the other thread, at first try to learn the course and where to shift up and down smoothly, then go faster.
