How to remover rev limiter

[Jaxx_]

Agreed, If you look up m10 history BMW used them for F1 because the blocks were so bulletproof.

because the motors in F1 were stock...


I'd suggest new rocker arms before you start spinning too high. they're the first to break.

You re wrong! My M10b18 revs past 7000rpm and with good fuel it also put out some 10 more bhp than stock (Max Power 114bhp at 7250rpm at a local dyno).Removing the rev limiter if you know how to drive properly (ie not over revving like mad every time you step on the throttle) is ok for any bullet proof M10 out there.
Yes,its still no power monster,but also yes,you CAN remove the limiter!

There is no sense to rev stock 318i m10 over 6500rpm you only gain noise.

[namsayin]

Oh noes.

[Farbin Kaiber]

Oh noes.

So you think your 22 year old M10 is OK with spinning at 7500 RPM?

When you find this magic "chip" that allows that kind of abuse, make sure it comes with AAA and a bus pass.

lulz

wow - its not actually that complicated - dont play with resistors or get a new dizzy. take off the dizzy cap, on top of the rotor is a is a little plastic thing with a metal point on the end and a spring on it. remove it... its an ignition cut limiter.

yea.. I knew this for some time now haha

Oh goodness.

[e30trooper]

its ok i found out how. I need a dizzy from a e21 m10

[mattdk318i]

you arent ready for that power.....

[e30trooper]

i wouldnt do this on a stock motor haha, i just wanted to know once i start building this thing, but thanks

E30 318i's have l-jetronic injection, those oldies can't be chipped.

L-jetronic is analog type computer and it has no software.

Some have limiter on both, on distiributor rotor and in ECU, while others have it only in ECU.

There is no sense to rev stock 318i m10 over 6500rpm you only gain noise.

If you however wish to modify the limiter this is the solution: http://home.swipnet.se/joakim_adolfs...tion-text.html
