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) |

I like the REV limit rotors.. but its hard to beat the Smooth Touch REV control and Multi spark that the MSD's offer. SummitRacing sells them for 179.00. You can pick and choose the rpm limit with the little chips. They cut out every other cylinder to rev limit instead of letting fuel build up.
Something that wasnt brought up: When the factory rotor cuts off and you lose all power... wouldnt this upset the car ?? Like lifting throttle. I know the MSD is smooth enough that this doesnt happen. Oh.. I think the MSD is worth the 179.00. It helps with throttle response also... B |
