i thought the C20XE was 7000 dead?? C/X16XE is 6750. 1.2 16v will be 6250, the same as the 8v models. X14XE is 6500

c20xe ECU doesnt rev to 7500, sure its 7200 standard. May depend on car/model the c20xe was in though i suppose :boggle:

Sure mine was 7200 (cav GSi 2000)

You dont want to me be ragging the fuck out of your 1.2, not like its quick anyway. Drive carefully, care for it, sell it on in good cond and buy something which will actually go some.

just under 6000rpm

anything over the sxi tells you to fuck off and doesnt move

great little engines them

sorry i thought the limiter was 6250 ... fuk knows what my x16xe is then..

ok as i realised having a 1.2 sxi slows things down

dont limit it as you loose poo loads of speed like rob said just under 6000rpm is best just before you hit limiter

also give my 1bhp tip ago u might be suprised

i have 1.2 16 sxi 1999 when is the best time to change gear to get the most power/ speed out of my i car i heardy drive it fast and just would like to no when is the best time to change gear in all gears, ps does letting it go upto the limiter slow your car down.
