No. You have a very common misunderstanding. You can check from any measured data, that the biggest rate of change in speed (= acceleration) is in the point of maximum torque, not peak power. Maybe someone else can explain this a bit better... http://www.allpar.com/eek/hp-vs-torque.html

Now I don't try to prove anything. In the very beginning I had to first prove that it really is a good idea to raise the rev limit even with my current setup. My need at the moment like is was in the beginnin that I am trying get rid of the rev limiter. Before doing anything I would like to...

Not again. If you want to accelerate an object, you need have some force pushing it. That force you get from wheel torque. Acceleration is defined as: F = m * a, or in other way a = F/m (the bigger the force or lower the mass means higher acceleration) Torque is defined as: t = r * F...

If you checked the graph, the green curve shows the torque to the wheels. Power is not the one which is accelerating the car, torque to the wheels is. Because on second gear (in Micra with RS5F30A or RS5F31V gearbox) you have 1.5 times more torgue to wheels than third gear, you will need to have...

Hmm. I can understand the out of sync part but not the reduced injector cycle. The injector time cannot be half from the other measurement with the same rpm or it would mean AFR to go from 13:1 to 26:1. It wouldn't even run. The batch fired mode could really explain the behavior on low rpms...

Here is the "proof" for the acceleration over the 7krpm. Acceleration was calculated from rpm and time and the 3rd gear acceleration was multiplied by 1.5 compared to 2nd to reflect the gearbox ratio. Data source was Nissan Datascan through consult inteface. As you can see, even when shifting...

I was trying get rid of the rev limiter and asking if anyone else is having a workaround for my issue. I was not going to argue if this modification is needed to do for my CURRENT setup. :confused: Anyone having a real input to my question? For the previous post: I think it's not only the peak...

It seems that I was not so lucky. I just put it back as it was. I also made 4 quarter mile test runs with and without limiter using GPS based Racechrono in a mobile phone as a measuring device. 17.6 s and 17.5 s without limiter and 18.1 s with limiter. This was supposed to be easy 0.5 sec...

Ok, I understand your question. This is just for my hobby to see how much I can get from this. It seems that my micra has a limiter in 6700 or so. Anyway it pulls strong to limiter so I'm trying to find the limits for this. With testing with aluminum tape I saw it nicely pull at least 1k...

Hi all, (I know this is an old thread, but it has already good discussion.) I did the rev limiter removal first using brown packaging tape --> no success. Another try with aluminum tape. Works as a rev limiter removal. But the aluminum tape fix caused some additional strange behaviour...
