    Default C20XE Omex Rev limiter and Launch Control

    So i bought myself an Omex rev limiter and Launch control

    I temporarily fitted it last night (pictures to come) as i haven't decided what steering wheel i want still...

    Quickly set it up to give it a try before the neighbours got annoyed haha

    So set the launch control at 3500 rpm i believe (does the launch control function go up in increments of 100 like the rev limiter?)

    When trying it out the tacho was showing it cut but was jumping up beyond 3500rpm? anyone got any ideas why?

    Not sure if i had it on hard cut as it seemed quite lazy in my opinion to what i was expecting... and im not sure if it was just first start up but idle was a bit rough would that have anything to do with me fitting the unit?

    Will get pics and videos this week

    Cheers

    I'll be honest it never felt quite right even with the replacement unit, might be our particular XE loom/ECU setup, I changed to an Armtech unit (which is actually part of Omex?!) and that works as expected. Didn't have launch tho.
