Just wondering as there is no rev limiter, just keeps going, I guess someone has simply had it raised? There's also an adjustable FPR fitted, just curious really, any input appreciate!

The FPR will not dictate the rev range. Its likely they could have raised the limit/fitted a Ph1 Engine/Ecu

Ph1 map still has a rev limit. its just slightly higher.
Its had the limiter removed, possibly due to having cams fitted as tom said.

Interesting, it does go well, and sounds awesome higher up the revs, I've never been in another rallye/6 so havnt got anything to compare it too really.

Well he's obviously stopped trying to rev it somewhere. Its a possibility he could have bottles it just over the 'normal' ph 2/3 limit.
Although a limitless 306 out the factory as standard. Now that could be fun.
For a while anyway.

Around 7500rpm+ I'd say, it definitely isn't there, Tom can't get a video as I can't afford to have both cars on the road at the moment, could do one at stand still on the drive but can guarantee my neighbour would make an appearance lol.

Well a phase 1 limiter is around 7500... 7450 IIRC. So, it's gone past that?

My 1.8 lived on the limiter (ask niall and scott) and it kept going fine. Cars are like athletes. The harder you run them, the stronger they get. Right?

because you said you'd took it to 7.5 and that's where the limiter is, it's not like a diesel govener, it will come in hard lol . .

Not all the way around to 8k, in between the 7.5k-8k, thinking about it back when we had all that snow, whilst messing about i could hold it planted in 1st or 2nd and no limiter would come in, like you guys said above it might be a tad more up in the revs, wish it was built up then i could of taken it for a rip around the farm and find out for certain, may order the needed bits for it at work tomorrow depending on how much they are and try to get it back together!

You don't need to drive it to find out if it revs or not you know lol
Get a video of a hard rev until it hits the limiter, or as far as you fare go, maybe 8k ? I'm interested as to what it's set at.

Mine's got a limiter at just under 8k and it revs there fine! I'd be surprised, even if it is mapped / chipped whatever you want to call it, if the limiter is past 7750. Chip Wizards normally set it there, and superchips do 7725 or something.
