The Hardcut Limiter, also known as the Popcorn Limiter, is an ECU feature that sharply cuts fuel at a set RPM instead of gradually reducing power. This creates a sharp, crackling sound at the redline, popular on diesel and turbocharged petrol engines.
Unlike the factory 'softcut' limiter that gently protects the engine, the Hardcut generates a rhythmic fuel cut — producing the iconic popcorn or bang-bang effect associated with motorsport.
No Lift Shift (NLS) allows gear changes without lifting off the throttle. When the clutch is pressed, the ECU briefly cuts fuel or ignition.
This keeps turbo boost pressure up, reduces lag, and enables lightning-fast shifts — perfect for tuned and turbocharged engines.
Hardcut is very popular in motorsport and car shows, combining performance and sound. Paired with NLS, it optimizes gearshift time while delivering a unique driving experience.
