Uncle Lee, please help. I'm the WQA blue 8. After changed the battery, I think the ECU or the TREC thing reset itself. Now cannot go to 10k rpm. Max 9.5k only. Tested top speed just now on the way back. Accelerate from 110km/h @ 6th gear. I let go at 187km/h at a very short distance due to the road was so uneven. Just like on a boat. Some more the steering went left and right, especially on the left lane. Only ok when there was good condition road (but sadly to be too short). Front P-zero nero 235 rear yoko db 0 245.
Anyway, nothing much I can do now as I'm flying few more hours later. I'll find you when I come back and see if there is anything we can try.
If there is any used ori muffler, please let me know. The RE is nice but a bit too loud
TREC manual (JAP)

Wah.....hantam untill 10,000rpms...... I did that too when i first bought it a couple of months back.....BUT, u'll quickly realise that there is virtually NO power gain past 9,000rpms...... Might as well shift @ 9,000rpms and save ur engine from a good thrashing.....
BTW, ur RE-Amemiya exhaust is the Dolphin Tailpipe version arr??? got pics of it?

Well E-manage ultimate is just another piggy back.
I think you'll benefit more from the reflash as compared to E-manage ultimate.
For one, emanage ultimate can't remove the speed cut for you or help with the cooling.

Yes emanage ultimate comes with speed cut removal function but although I haven't try, I think the speedcut removal function will not work for RX-8.
