Read Maximum RPM from OBD2 or?

[boB]

I am hoping to find the maximum RPM (and temperature) reached by my car. I tried OBD2 reader and Forscan but could not find the information. I suspect Ford logs this data somewhere but maybe it is not recorded.

Any ideas?

I would expect that it's not recorded. The car has a hard-stop rev-limiter, so there's no reason to do that.

Hard-stop rev limiter means nothing in a manual with a miss shift …

I didn't miss a shift but did run it up to about redline in 4th for a bit (repeatedly). Just wondering how I can find just how high the revs went.

Yeah I wasn’t suggesting that, my response was to kingKona’s comment

I would actually like to know the same thing as I’m pretty sure the digi dash has a noticeable lag, especially in the lower gears where the revs climb rapidly

If you have android you can download the torque app and have it record max RPM from an OBD2 if you set it up right. At least I could on my 09 CTS-V with this app and a bluetooth obd2.

Here is what my torque app setup looked like.



I just use my nguage on my mustang and look at the logs after.

Which OBDll Adapter do you use for that app?

Some generic one from ebay that I bought in 2013 is what I used at that time (this was 5 years ago). The generic one didnt work with my Iphone though, so now I use an ancel one from which works with apple and car scan. Cant confirm it would work with android and torque but probably will. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B08DFYMTS6/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

If you are looking for a history, highly doubt it is being recorded and if it is - it's not easily accesible. Get an OBD2 reader with any kind of app that can do logging and re-do it.

So, did you blow it up?

Nope, it ran around Daytona perfectly then cruised home at about 60 mph less. ;) From the in-car video it looks like it was just a bit above 7000 rpm, no problem.

That's a great excuse to take it on a track again! ;)

Why in 4th gear if on the high banks? Did they limit how much lead you could let out.

4th tops out the speed limiter before it red lines (Around 6,800 from what I have seen). No real gain in going to 5th.

First time at Daytona so I was learning the car and track and not wanting to push it, 140 was enough. But next time... ;)
