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) |

QUOTE(Brad Roberts @ Apr 1 2003, 12:07 PM) 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. I think that depends on 2 things, how fast the spring reacts and what gear you are in. I don't have any AX experience with the rev-limit rotor, but in the electronic rev-limit box I made it seems to operate so fast that there is no feeling of losing power. This is pretty much the only electronic control situation I can think of where you want almost no hysteresis. Mark S. '70 914-6 |
