Perhaps you could email Kleeman and ask them if they de-limited your car.

It may shift up I think - to avoid this you may need to have the kickdown button depressed...?

Not sure - but a thot...

I have K2 and Klemmann told me the ECU had been de-limited to 296 km.

I think he is referring to the car not red lining 4th gear????

.....I have a K1 and I think my car shifts to 5th at 155 mph which is about 250 km/h and the limiter kicks in at about 297 km/h.

.....I never really notice my rev counter at those speeds, only my speed and how quickly I catch up with the cars ahead

...I take it you were in dyno mode when you reached 280 in 4th????.........if so, that will be the reason for the variance?
