#90915, "6500 Redline with 5 speed RS ?"


          

I have a 5 speed RS and it hasnt been running right. The day that it does I notice that my redline as always been 6500. To my knowledge doesnt the 5 spd have a 7200 redline. This would probably help my 1/8 mile at the track next time.

are you talking about red line or fuel cut? fuel cut happens at around 7200-7300rpm?

to my knowledge the mtx is original. I realize that the atx ecus have the 6500 cut. Maybe my ecu isnt original ? How can I tell ?

Its actual fuel cut not just a number on the guage since my overlays say 7200 anyway

on some gauge overlays (indiglo gauges) their numbers are off with the originals. on mine the redline says its at 6500 rpm, but if u look underneath the gauge the 6500rpm is actually 7200 rpm on the original. kind of dumb, thats why im going back to stock and taking my indiglos out.

pretty much all indiglo gauge faces i see are like that. do a search on ebay for the non-turbo ones and almost all tachs are wrong from original. ones that are the same seem to be rare, but i have seen them.

get the turbo eclipse tach indiglo gauge, for some reason the indiglo makers think all non turbo 2Gs are ATXs

and my ATX shifts as high as 6600, for the record
