The TracTuff VTC Limiter is yet another innovative product that was designed with the average consumer in mind! We wanted to offer a cost effective solution for limiting how much cam advance your motor see's, once clearances have been confirmed, and what we ended up with... is undoubtedly the easiest way to limit cam advance.
Our VTC Limiter is manufactured from precision ground 52100 Bearing Steel and finished to exacting tolerances (+/- .0001") and then heat treated to a hardness of 60-62 Rockwell C. The limiter works by placing the pin in a specific cavity of the VTC gear, where it can float freely, ultimately limiting the amount of advance the motor sees... regardless of what the map/ tune calls for.
Please note that it is not needed but if you have any concern with the pin floating freely in the cavity, you may elect to have the pin tacked in place once you have confirmed your engines specific clearances. I say it is not needed because I personally have never had any issues, nor have there been any reported issues with the 100's that have been sold. Truth is... the pin doesn't actually float "FREELY" when the engine is in motion, centrifugal force actually locates the pin exactly where it needs to be, to work. The same principal that is in effect when you see people on that spinning carnival ride, the one where people are standing against a padded wall, without any safety belt or locking bar, and you become pined to the wall as it speeds up! So, it only moves when the engine comes to rest... its not randomly moving around.
