Don't forget your speedo might be off. The stock piece isn't really that reliable. If you want to have accurate reading, have a certified cop clock your with a laser gun. That will be the sure way to tell your speed.

That would suck if it was the speedo being wrong! mad
I will know when I race with him before he takes the pics because he will also be doing that speed and he can check his speedo too! wink

One more thought for everyone out there, make sure your tires are rated for the types of speeds that you plan on attempting! eek
120mph and then a tire blows out! eek eek frown

After the certified cop tags me with the certified laser gun, I will go to court and write a certified cheque! laugh

I have gotten my car past 125mph with my superchip. I have witnesses (I-Dom-in-8). He hit his limiter at about 120 and I kept on going. It is on that video on www.myfamily.com I believe the title is 'video to Mike's house' or something like that.

I did what you said, and the only thread the search came up with was this one. Got any other info that might help me get rid of the damn speed governor?
