VTS Rev Limit

[JRC1]

I'm pretty sure that a vts' redline is at 7250

I was driving mine earlier and it carried on until 7500 where I changed gear as I didn't want to go any higher...

Is there any reason for it not to limit at 7250 as as far as I know the engine is completely standard apart from my full supersprint system and panel filter.

Cheers.

[Liam_LFC_VTR]

Not sure about that, I know VTEC Civics go to 8,500 revs iirc.

Why the hell were you changing gear at that revs anyway lol

Just testing my new engine out mate lol.. Wasn't speeding, was on a motorway slip road. Just curious as to why it didn't limit.. As I said, I didn't want to go any higher. Don't intend on putting my engine under silly pressure!

Tbh mate I wouldn't want to be doing that too often. Cant be healthy for the engine lol :y:

You might want to get that checked out? Could be a fault?

Oh don't worry mate. I don't intend on doing it often lol..

I mean, the rev limit is there for a reason, it is healthy to rev up to it.. Hence, I was checking to see if it was there and it just carried on! Just wondered if other people have had this etc..

Possible fault with the limiter?

If it was me id get it checked or even ask a mechanic just to make sure mate. :y:

[n123]

8000 rpm takes my saxo with his chip and no problem.

[JRC1]

8000 rpm takes my saxo with his chip and no problem.

Pretty sure it hasn't got a chip or been modified in the slightest though mate that's the thing..

Don't really feel like taking it to 8000 to find out either lol

[VTRelite]

Just do it you pussy :p

[SAM33R]

standard limiter is 6250 i think... but thats good though,,, more top end perhaps?

[gaz4399]

my standard engine goes to 7600 roughly before it hits the limiter, a mate of mine also has the same. we both have mk2 vts's

[SAM33R]

really? i'll have to check my gti.... not keen on thrashin it as i just done over a clutch

[gaz4399]

really? i'll have to check my gti.... not keen on thrashin it as i just done over a clutch

i have only done it once just to find out, i respect my engine lol

[SAM33R]

yeah i respect the car now after i was racing and the clutch friction plate snapped... thing is you cant not rag a vts/gti, too tempting imo

[farry1988]

after my remap on my vts i can rev all the way to about 7600, and still dont hit the limiter, dont dare let it go any further, always feel bad after i rev it abit poor thing lol

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

only making the point that people with hairdressers cars cant keep up with a propper vts thats all chill out;)

[farry1988]

haha ill wait for someone else to say it

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

and your on about revs,u can rev the xsara vts for fun and it goes like stink saxo on the other hand having driven a few , yeah it revs but omg it makes a meal of it,feels like its falling appart:n:

any need for posting on a saxo forum then if you think that badly of them? just a thought

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

also take a look on euroncap webby interesting reading and viewing (scarey) for a saxo lmao

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

anyway cya hairdressing losers will see ya in my rear view mirror tata lol

[farry1988]

let me guess because ''its french''? i think your best bet would be to find a xsara fourm? no point coming on a saxo forum to slate them and arguing on the net is ghey

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

got my own forum m8 , just thought i'd come on a let u lot with hairdressers cars know we got your numbers lmfao:clapping:

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

paxos lmao

[Boothy_UK]

saxo? a hairdressers car?
pffft silly boy. saxos lick speed anyway whats your point?
do us all a favour and so find a forum for saloons! if you think this ones for salons!
ohh like that? haha. thats goin on the "whats your best comeback" thread =P

[farry1988]

lock thread, ban user

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

bunch of losers with your black bonnets and noisy exhaust ,will never be a match for xsara vts:hug:

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

dream on kiddies:fcuk:

[vtr_cheshire]

Seriously mate, FUCK OFF.

I don't drive a saxo, haven't done for ages. I don't come on the Xsara forum slating your wanna' be rep mobiles do i?

P.s, your Scottish and i'm Irish, makes me better than you... tight fisted prickadickle.

p.p.s FUCK OFF

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

good choice lol

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

fordys and vauxhalls maybe not so great a choice and a vtr ,god i was almost sick there lmfaooooooooooo

[vtr_cheshire]

I love how lonely you must be. Me on the other hand, couldn't give a shit.

Saxo's were marketed towards the shopping car crowd, now seem to attract younger kids, as i've got older, i don't need speed, i need to get from A-B.

Grow up? Not very Xsara like behaviour is it?

[Ross1308]

Xsara Sucks COCK, But that my opinon :y:

And tbh by coming in the thread saying that its amazing and starting a "My Cars better than your car" you deserve the shit.....

Awaits Rapage....

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

gotta love a vtr driver ,they give it their all with all of the 90 bhp they have on tap,they way they hunk up behind u then u leave them for dead , great:hug: stuff

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

same with paxo vts drivers too, very funny

[vtr_cheshire]

Night matey, sleep easy

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

i will sleep easy ,hopefully i will get some saxo enthousiasts tomorrow,will make my day;)

[kevin_172]

i will sleep easy ,hopefully i will get some saxo enthousiasts tomorrow,will make my day;)

i get cocks like you trying to have a go at my clio m8 and leave them for dust so jog on back to the family car forums pls :)

[kevin_172]

oh and to be "on topic" the rev limit of a VTS is 7250

[raunchz]

could it be that when the ECU was unlocked the rev limit has either been removed? or is just very high?

Might be worth fitting one of those OMEX rev limiters as is nice for peace of mind to have a limiter!

[bytor]

I'm pretty sure that a vts' redline is at 7250

I was driving mine earlier and it carried on until 7500 where I changed gear as I didn't want to go any higher...

Is there any reason for it not to limit at 7250 as as far as I know the engine is completely standard apart from my full supersprint system and panel filter.

Cheers.

Just like the speedo, the rev count is out. All standard vts rev to around 7600 on the dials :y:

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

i get cocks like you trying to have a go at my clio m8 and leave them for dust so jog on back to the family car forums pls :)


jog on ,think again with your clio,just another hairdressers car the xsara vts eats for breaky:hug:

[Mr_P]

xsara...? I'd rather walk.

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

so would i if i had a 1.1 saxo:P walking is faster

[Mr_P]

But in that case you'd have been daft to get a 1.1 saxo.

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

well said ^^^^^^^^^^lmfao;)

[Mr_P]

So you're just backing up that you would have been daft to buy one? I lovew how you somehow believe you are by far superior to all saxo owners because you own a Citroen, Xsara. Seriously mate, at the end of the day you honestly need to get a life.

Perhaps toodle off to your xsara forum with your friends? If, of course other people with xsara's actually sit in front of a pc talking to other old men.

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

got to be better than talking to kids and hairdressers;)

[Mr_P]

Well better do one then, people will start talking.

Gav the old cunt in a Xsara likes chatting up young boys over the internet, invites them to meet and then rapes their poohole. And as far as a hairdresser's car? fucking lolz. you've got a screwloose.

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

where did u get that idea from,omg is that why your on here pmsl sicko

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

jobby jabber that u are:wacko: lmfao

[Mr_P]

Sorry mate, hit a nerve?


And I have better things to do than argue with some old man over the internet about how he rapes little boys.

SO I leave you with this.

:homme:

[dazzle]

i have a 1.1 and i'm a hairdresser (well barber) n just just find this so funny how xsara are putting out 120 break but if u look at most of the vt's on here their pushing more.

this must be what u do for fun, yerh, whilst ur not searching though porn i guess

[kevin_172]

your xsara would eat a 200bhp+ clio sport WHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA twat!

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

your xsara would eat a 200bhp+ clio sport WHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA twat!


easily m8:P

[kevin_172]

sorry i am really pissing myself here at work, as i said go back to the family car forum! you would have 0 chance at keeping up with me unless it was a 220bhp engine track preped with fuck all weight

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

lol ive taken many clio sports,over rated :drink:

[VTS-Gav-VTS]

220 bhp you say,is that with your electric supercharger fitted lmfaoooooooooooo

[frankie]

some unlocked ecu's dont have a rev limiter.

[Toad]

I think Gav just needs a BIG hug. :)

Don't worry mate, life does get better than this as you get older. I'm sure you'll sort it out.

Going back to the OP's comments... The limiter has nothing to do with the engine, it's set by the ECU. Standard setting is 7250rpm which has already been mentioned. With a standard engine, there's no need to rev the engine this high, as max BHP should be obtained roughly around 6600rpm. However, it won't do the engine any harm, that's why the limiter is there, to stop the engine going to an unsafe rpm.

If you want to look after your engine, make sure you give it regular oil changes, and use fully synthetic oil, preferably ester based types. Make sure all other regualr serviceable items are changes frequently, and then you can rev it high until your heart is content. :y:

[Thecherry0121]

As toad said :)

And someone ban the man with ginger hair and a skirt we are all gutted that you drive the fastest xsara in the world and will always be envyous of you NO REALLY WE ARE !

(no offence to any other scottish member though)

[Steve]

Full of shit this thread.

Covered many a time ;)

limiter is 7250... but if your pushing the car hard in 1st 2nd 3rd sometimes it will rev all the way through, had mine right the way through the 7s.

Pointless rev'in that high, but sometimes on a track its easier/faster to not change gear as you will be dropping back down more or less straight away for a corner.

Straight lines etc i normally change around the 6800 mark, as i can feel the car drop out the power band after that.

[kevin_172]

220 bhp you say,is that with your electric supercharger fitted lmfaoooooooooooo

no its with my stand alone ecu, jenvey ITB's and 428 cat cams u nobber :) sorry for going compleatly OT but hes doing my head in :boxing:

[raunchz]

the xsara vts only has a book 0-60 of 8secs, and 167bhp.

whereas a tb'd vts will be around this power figure, BUT a lot llighter so would eat it to 100 (all you'd really do with an S1 box) - so a 1*2 TB'd clio (200bhp+) would easily do a xsara vts, and would be into the distance when it came to the bends.

I'm not arguing, I'm trying to put across the facts.

1-0

[Kev_Vtec]

220 bhp you say,is that with your electric supercharger fitted lmfaoooooooooooo

eh mate my vts saxo woops the bigger xsara vts yes you have a bigger engine but power to weight its slow. when you going to crail next? also has for the rpm mines remaped its goes to 8000rpm still not hit the limter

[Finchowned]

I've had the same on my standard ECU; rev limit at 7.5k. Tach must be a bit out I assume.

Btw, don't feed the Jock troll.

[makaveli144]

bunch of losers with your black bonnets and noisy exhaust ,will never be a match for xsara vts

I think you would find that your lil xsara wouldnt stand a chance against my VTS, and I dont have a black bonnet or a noisy exhaust.

Back on topic standard VTS revs to 7250, but sometimes the clock can be slightly out so indicates more than true.

[Ross1308]

I would deffinetly6 get it checked out mate or just rev it and if it dosnt limit by 8k then youve obviously gotr somthing wrong.

VTS-Gav-VTS which is a shit username to begin with and makes me think your the type of person who goes and buys shitty looking wheel trims, cause you can't afford alloy wheels, and still thinks neons are cool along with your lexus lights and BIG MASSIVE Stickers, tbh mate if your not gonna give the boy advice dont comment at all, simple enough, so i suggest you leave this forum, because your no use to anyone.

Hope you crash into a fucking wall you prick :y:
Have a nice day
Ross.

lol at the gold chevrons :D

[moody989]

do you have a vts gearbox? it might rev more with another box on it like xsi or rallye

[benJee_VTR]

lol at the gold chevrons :D

ha to match the shiny lexus lights on the rear too

[nick-w-saxo]

dream on kiddies:fcuk:

why do you feel the need to come on here? my mate comes on here and he has a fiat Punto GT Turbo, it puts out 235 BHP, but he dont come on here slating people. he would smoke you with your 170 BHP 'coupe' but he dont come on here moaning about it, as a 32 year old man you need to find something better to do so screw you

[AndySAXO]

do you have a vts gearbox? it might rev more with another box on it like xsi or rallye

it will not rev more with a differnt gear box!!

the rev limiter is done by the ECU!

and anyway an XSI and rallye when on the XSI or rallye engines have lower rev limiters than a vts standard!

so that would not effect it one bit all contorl from the ecu.

You could have a fualt crank sensor which might be throwing it out at higher revs!

or someone play with the ecu you have on your engine!

[stingray1987]

where has vts GAY vts gone im enjoying laffing at him.
id love race u in my 1.6 corsa. id make shure u had a close up of the thing too.

youd beat it till u got to the first trafic lights then smash here comes the corsa staight in the back of my blue peter body kitted blue-tac together family car.

[b0t13]

xsara is a shit car and slower than a std vts so this guy is a gimp, some1 ban him so we dont have to listen to his crap..

ur dials might be out thats why it APPEARS to be revving higher, push it to nearly 8k and see if it hits, if not then something is either different or wrong

[Ryan]

bunch of losers with your black bonnets and noisy exhaust ,will never be a match for xsara vts:hug:

I say nearly 200bhp NA Plus a shed load of other trick parts would show you wrong ;)
