I have an LS, its fully built it can easially take 8k rpms. What is the cheapest/easiest way to raise the redline another 1000rpm.

 

there is not really a cheap to be able to get it to reline higher. you will have to upgrade the moving parts of the motor first and that is not cheap and then that is the only way to have it reliable and have higher revs

 

Ill say it again, all these parts HAVE been upgraded. The engine is fully rebuilt, everything is stronger, it can easially take 8000rpm, I need to find out the cheapest way to simply rasie the rev limiter.

 

I don't know how cheap it will be, but there are many companies that make chips and piggy back ECU's that will allow you to override the rev limiter.

I would recommend using a new standalone ECU though. Go to http://www.hondata.com

They have programs that will allow you to program your existing ECU to achieve the higher redline.

Also try http://www.jdmhondaparts.com

 

i think gforce engineering can reprogram your ecu with a higher rev limit not sure how much it will cost though. i would think cheaper than hondata.

 

chipping/reprogramming comes to mind...

 

who does this, and what would it cost me?

 

Katman does it

 

why yes..yes i do

email me privately 97...
1 thing, I cannot do OBD2 ECU's.

is there anywhere that can do a OBD 2 ECU? Im not trying to spend a lot to simply raise my rev limiter 1000rpm.

 

are you able to do obd0 ecus? i have a 91 ls ecu that i've been looking to get chip w/ better specs. thanks

 

yep..I can do those too.
email me privately and I'll send you additional info .
danke.

 

doesnt MSD make an egnition that can adjust your rev limit???

 

ya, but I dont know if it overrides the stock rev limiter.... anyone know the anwser to this?

 

i dont think obd2 is reprogramable, thats why you need to convert to obd1.

 

What is with everyone wanting to rev to 10k? I just don't get it, so what if you're motor can rev that high, does it still make powr up there? In most cases you lose power that high.

 

10k LOL, I want to rev to 8k. I have an LS that is fully built up, it is begging me to rev higher.
