Change the rev limits in the settings menu. Both hard and soft up. Are you logging as it hits the rev limiter? Is it cutting fuel? Spark? Send me a log maybe I can take a look at it or post it here. Let me take a look at 2.6 software. I don't think there is additional setting in there but I may be mistaken. I don't see too many 2.6 boxes but have done tech support on them before.

I want to see that log particularly when it cuts. The stock ECU can not cut spark any longer since it doesn't fire the ignition so MUST be the Hydra doing it. Also make sure nothing silly is enabled at that RPM like launch control or a secondary trigger.

Going to get you a datalog tomorrow, yeah the guy from Element Tuning mentioned to make sure the Aux2 stuff as well(Anti Lag, Flat Foot Shifting, Launch Control) was not on and causing issues.

you are not using a knock sensor? the stock knock retard is no longer there but the hydra knock retard is always active.. if your threshold is too low to it triggers a false knock retard and adds fuel.. check your log. check how many volts you have set at around 6k up.. also secondary maps like guru mentioned, if its for some reason triggered it will switch your map to whatever is on your secondary spark or fuel

Yeah I would guess thats the case especially at WOT, but might as well check everything

It is obviously possible since vinny was able to change it on mine. My redline for now is 7K and it will be at 7.5K in few weeks.
So what did Vinny tell you after he looked up in his laptop ?

At that point I had to get Vinny in touch with the tuner since I did not have the laptop/car in front of me. I am hoping tomorrow to hear what came out of it

It may be at the start but normally it reads off the X axis. Which means that Everything from a point is read at the same time. The horsepower, torque, boost and AFR at that given point in time are recorded. Which shows 12.8:1, if so he could improve the spool and make this tune way safer at 11.7:1

So we were told by Andrew that since mine is an 06, the stock ECU would have to be flashed to be able to raise the rev limiter.....can that be right??
#37
flashed with what? 07 up i believe does different strategy in doing rev limiter cutoff, thats why they dont bounce like 06 below.. and 2.6 was prolly setup to just deal with 07s up.. im so glad i didnt upgrade to 2.6
#38
Unless its not a full Standalone the way they have it wired..
Ahh im so glad i got the aem ems from dezod. it has FULL control 4tw! Maybe try to switch to one of there boxes. There no way you can flash our ecu. or you woudlint need the hydra to begin with....

Flashed? I am unaware of ANY reflashed ECU tC anywhere that was done for the sake of raising the revlimiter. Andrew is mis-informed. Also like Ace mentioned, the 07+ models have different parameters/methods to engage fuel cut. We have it easier with the 05-06 models cause ours will not act like the 07+. So, if anything it should be easier to get it working since you have an 06 like me.
