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) |

It does upset the car somewhat when you hit the limiter, but if you're really close enough to the edge then any reduction in power will transfer weight off the rear wheels and spin you...
My car was running very rich, and it banged and popped like an Oakland drive-by when I hit the limiter. It didn't use to do that when the mixture was more reasonable. --DD |
