Beaker Member 41 Member For: 17y 10m 7d Posted 29/06/07 11:23 AM Share Posted 29/06/07 11:23 AM (edited) BF II ManualThis is the first performance car I've ever sat in that doesn't have a clear 'Don't rev me past here' line on the tacho. I've looked backwards and forwards through the manual and there isn't anything other then the usual To obtain the best all round performance for this vehicle it is recomended not to exceed 4000rpm (Yeah right!)Can anyone help me out here? I'm guessing around the 6K mark, but it'd be nice to know.Also does it have a soft cut or hard cut revlimiter?

seventytwo Still have a turbo, it's just on a diesel. Lifetime Members 5,368 Member For: 19y 9m 24d Gender: Male Location: The 8th Dimension Posted 29/06/07 12:23 PM Share Posted 29/06/07 12:23 PM it has a variable rev limit, depending on the conditions and what gear your in. Its about 5500rpm and when you hit it, it feels like the engine has fallen out of the car.

Posted 29/06/07 11:59 PM Share Posted 29/06/07 11:59 PM I think it might be slightly higher then 5500, but not quite 6000. But when you hit you'll know, just make sure you have ya seatbelt on or you'll fly the the windscreen! lol Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/36222-err-maybe-a-dumb-question/#findComment-549980 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nearly flew out the windscreen.... Another time I flashed in the rev limiter tune by accident... revs only to 4000rpm I was doing bunny hops as if I was driving a manual hahahahaha Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/36222-err-maybe-a-dumb-question/#findComment-550011 Share on other sites More sharing options...
