2012+ mct cars rev limit

I know the pre facelift cars can rev over 7200 via tuning,but i havent seen any facelift cars do it...
i believe its a mct limiter.

You can go to 7500 with tuning but the valvetrain probably won’t like it. There’s no “mct limiter”. I’m at 7200.

the ec cars that have the 7500 tune only do 7300 7400 tops so no true 7500 on any mct cars.

I thought I read somewhere that the car will not shift at the higher limit in any of the auto modes, and supposedly only works in manual mode. Could be wrong though.

Mct can be raised no problem. Had mine on my 2012 at 7300 rpms tuned by Jeremy. At stock rev limit when changing gears my car would drop to 5200 and feels flat. On 7300 tune when gear changes at 5500 and car is on top of power band. Feels better.

Since yours is the the black series you can run a 7500 rev limit. But on tac it looks like 7800-7900.

Theres no power to be gained with the raised rev limit. Just puts you on top of the power band when changing gears.

Only reason why I’m inquiring about it,i can try to rev out 4th more so it doesn’t drop when it goes into fifth as much.

You have to shift before it bangs the limiter or your gonna bog into next shift,basically raise it to 7600 and let it rev to 73 74 than shift into fifth.
