redline? Options

[easternpiro1]

urbandork reminded me of a question ive been meaning to ask everybody. Ive seen a vid of someone while they were driving, and their needle was reading at about 8 or 9k whenit red lined, and i remember someone making a comment saying that theirs redlines at 9k.

im only getting about 6500 rpms when i hit the rev limiter is there something i should know? when i got my tranny rebiult, the guy said that it felt like i still had some power left and 6.5 seemed kinda early, i feel the same way what can be done?

I'll betcha that the rev limiter is lower in the 4th gen because the ECU is for an automatic, since the Caldina came with a 6-speed AWD auto tranny. Most of Toyota's auto ECUs have a lower rev limit than the manuals.

Perhaps with an eManage Ultimate we could raise the redline a little, I'm sure with that CT20b there's more left up top to gain

Ya know how well a 6spd auto awd 4th gen 3sgte matrix would've sold? *sigh*... God damn.. imagine if they would've done a 6psd manual awd 3sgte trans too... that would probably actually be swappable into a celica w/o much trouble.. not to mention the 4th gen 3sgte too... sometimes toyota makes me cry.
