I just got my 3 step installed for my Hondata S200. Has anyone used this before and what results have you had? Is there any extra wear on your motor holding it a high rpm without a load from the tranny while you are shifting? Any info would be great!

a lot of ppl here on ht say that a h22 stock tranny doasent like the high rev shifts very much. just for the fact that its actuated by cables and not by rods. but then again u get the other ppl saying that its perfectly ok as long as u do it right. but i believe that, as long as u do ur set up right u would have no problem.now for the part about the h22 at high revs, its not gonna affect it as much, but it will take some life away for ur engine. id recomend u getting a aftermarket timing belt if ur on a budget, this is just to protect ur motor. but to much abuse from ur part like on a daily bases per say, it will make damage ur motor. the h22 is not meant to be a high rev motor, unless is built to withstand such abuse

 

i had a similar question. sorry if im whoring your thread. but i was wondering if the two step on hondata s200 was a fuel cut or timing. im conserned cause my car is boosted.

 

i will preface this by saying i have no REAL idea about how the s200 works, but i have an idea based on other ecu's i have chipped.

my money would be on a stepped fuel cut system. the reason for this is because in most fuel cut systems for rev limit, launch control, etc, fuel is simply turned off to prohibit the engine from revving. this can be potentially damaging because it leans out the a/f mix pretty bad.

the reason for using a stepped system is so you have a soft fuel cut. so instead of fuel getting turned off, it is turned down in stages. you cut fuel 25% then 50% then 75%. this way you get the effect of a fuel cut, without the potentially disastrous detonation you face by having a "hard" fuel cut.

i want to program my ecu to soft fuel cut, and i think chrome has this feature, but turboedit doesnt..

the moral of the story is that it shouldnt hurt your engine too bad if you hit rev limit once a week or less. but every day or multiple times a day will deffinetly affect your engine in the long run.

 

Thanks for the replies, but how did you go from a question about a S200 Hondata rev limiter to talking about the internals of an H22?? I am just curious if anyone out there has used it or info regarding it.


Thanks
