I have only heard good things about them...I've talked to them on the phone a time or two, they seems very nice and very knowledgable.

5800 rpm can disconnect it real easily

Timing protection module or rev limiter? They are 2 different electronic systems. Rev limiter just bumps at the rev limit but timing protection retards your timing and causes a decrease in rpms by around 1000rpms!

Don't have an answer for you, interested as well. I don't think mine has ever spun past ~7300, thats running a 23 cleaver and I'm turning the same rpm with a 19 chopper. Seems like something is stopping it there. This is on a ported 59"

No worries mate, the timing takes out 2* @ 5000 rpm so goes from 24* back to 22*
Rev limiter is @ 5800

gees can't believe i typed that..
timing takes out 6* @ 5000 rpm taking it back to 18*
max timing is 24* for normal mercs and 22* for seepro's
found this searching forum for an old thread
