Redlinit it in a 2.0 TSI

I've got near on 2k on the clock now & have been changing up at 5k max whilst bedding in (ample really as it pulls really well & easily whatever gear / rev so haven't been really ragging it)... anyway I decided to treat myself this weekend :D

Dropped from 6th to 4th at 80ish & pushed it up to 7kish revs... pulls like a mo-fo with a surge & a great noise :D

My previous car bounced off the limiter at 6.5 so was more than pleasantly surprised to see 7 :D

Does anyone know what the limiter peaks at ? And also the speeds at which you bounce off the limiter per gear ?

from what i can remember its on the button at 7k (standard car) around 35ish in 1st, 62ish in second, 90ish in 3rd, 120ish in 4th, 140ish in 5th, and only got 155 in 6th but with lots of revs left.

these aint exact, but just from what i can remember.

2 more weeks and ill see if anything changes with my car then ;) :yes:

since my re-map i find its best to change ast around 6-6.5k rpm anything above that the car doesnt seem to be pulling as hard, I'll check my power graph to see where the power starts to fall off! :)
