FlatShift (shift-cut) is a process in which driver has the capability to change gears keeping the throttle pedal pressed and using only the clutch pedal. During the Flatshift operation, ignition cut or timing retard is used for antilag purposes without risking getting damage of the trasmission. The standar tune for Flatshift is 200ms, whereas more skilled drivers will benefit with time lower than 200ms.
*FlatShift advantages - During gear change, turbo has possitive boost pressure - Protection of syncs during fast and ''hard'' changes - Benefit of several ms during 0-400 times - Via antilag-FlatShiftturbo is always on boost
Knock Warning
Knock Warningis another innovation of Revilimit which has to do with Protection of the engine from knocking and notifing the driver when the engine is knocking. The driver is notified by the Check engine light (MIL) which flashes when ECU diognoses High timing retard via the knock sensor. More specifically, knock warning is set by default at -9 degrees. This means that when MB020 (Measuring Block 020) sees correction of 9 degrees in timing advance in at least one cylinder, then MIL light flashes with a frequency of 5Hz. In that case we should stop pressing the throttle, since the engine is at critical situation. We should also find the reason why this happened.
* Advantages of Knock Wanring - Prevention of adulterated gasoline - Prevention operation error in cars that are equiped with Water Methanol injection - Prevention of defective variable valve timing of the TFSi engine which causes High timing retard - Prevention of engine destruction
Shiftlight
The widely knownshiftlight, which warns the driver when he should change gear, is tuned to work with the factory ECU, using the EPC light at the preferred rpm. The light can either flash or stay on.
