G4 Storm - Rev Limit. No soft/hard option

[Kris Klutke]

Hi Guys, I have a G4 Storm on a VVT SR20. I use the car for drifting so being able to sit on the rev limit is important at times. Currently it feels as if it is set to a hard cut. When the limit is reached it a strong cut to the motor. Really reduces momentum of the car. I see the G3 has the option for both a soft and hard cut, but the G4 doesn't? Only IGN / Fuel. Is there a way to change this? Possible to get a firmware update? Many thanks, Kris

Read the PCLink help file about limiting, and you should be able to set this up quite well yourself.  I only assume I am talking to someone running the latest firmare with that last comment.  I have attached an image of what you should be viewing.  If you can honestly come back to me after reading the help file on it, and still not get it... I would be surprised.

My fist step would be to turn off the hard limit feature if that is on, that would be the biggest thing.  And then possibly play a little with the TP cut & low settings to suit your application of racing.  You shuold come out with something pretty close to what you are after.  Raising the exit decay rate will bring back the power faster but a lot less smoothly.

Thanks buddy, great help. I guess I'm not running the latest firmware as my options look different. I will give this a go. Many thanks, Kris

Those settings only appear when you turn on 'Advanced Mode' within the limiting set up.  The latest firmware is v4.6.9.738, but hang about for a day or two... Another release is coming REAL soon... like days away (I think tomorrow).  More cool features such as closed loop boost, and others too. 

WARNINGS ABOUT UPDATING FW:

- DO NOT DO THIS DAYS BEFORE RACE DAY

- READ ALL UPDATE INFORMATION BEFORE PROCEEDING

- UNDERSTAND ALL CHANGES FULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING
