David[RL] Posted June 21, 2004 Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 I installed a rpm thingy today in my KE70 have used V-Power fuel from Shell the last month, I don't know if you guys know what that is but it's a sort of fuel with some sort of engine cleaner in it, just like you can buy external and put in your fuel the last week the engine runs MUCH better, buch better acceleration and it doesn't lagg any longer :D how high can i rev my 4k engine? just tested a little today, was about 5500rpm in 2nd gear ( 70-80kph i think ) is it safe to rev it higher? I am wondering about this because now I hear a small noise from the engine, just like a broken part or something, maybe it is the radiator fan or something? it's hard to explain because of the bad english :\ -David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demuire Posted June 21, 2004 Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 You can't REALLY kill a stock'ish 4K by over-revving, you'll just get to valve bounce and it won't rev any higher. Obviously you don't want to sit valve bouncing for any extended period of time though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Jamie Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 with a stock motor, rev it until it won't rev anymore, you probably don't have the airflow to get it past 7000rpm anyway theoretically, you shouldn't rev a 4k past 7600, as the stock crank and rods aren't strong enough to handle that much piston speed. that's just based on a mathematical formula though that being said, i have taken mine to 8200 a few times, and 8000 alot of times, but i've improved some parts (head, camshaft, valve springs). i know of other improved 4Ks that have been taken to about 8000rpm for several years without a problem. apparently if you rev them past 8000 too much, the blocks crack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demuire Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 Mine used to valve bounce at about 5500RPM :D Apparently it's been spotted at Revolution Racegear lately :) Hmm, Pinky with go-fast-bits? NEVER! :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Jamie Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 that's so bad, you couldn't even reach power peak :D have you got that bloody white thing out on the skidpan yet? i want to see SUPER MEGA 100KW HYPER FOOK-POWERED HAPPY DORIFTO ACTION PHOTO GALLERY!

demuire Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 Yes it's been on the skidpan once, and it bloody well flies. It's easy to drive, and I even scared myself at the speeds I was hitting, and the one time I did really lose it I was going so fast I ended up way out in the sticks... According to one of the instructors who drove my car, all it needs now is an LSD and it'll be the easiest thing to drive ever :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irokin Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 apparently if you rev them past 8000 too much, the blocks crack yea...apparently. Then you have Redwarf...flogged to 9,000rpm I think it may be just a myth...and hell...its not like the blocks are expensive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Jamie Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 but that's a 3k, shorter stroke means higher piston speed means more max rpm. or is rob using a 4k crank? i can't remember :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
