Well guys I think I have a weird one. The speed limiter on our cars is supposed to engage at 137 mph (correct me here if I am wrong) and my guess is that it should simply cut the engine. I don't think I have seen any way to bypass that, but it doesn't seem to work in my car and I am concerned. I don't know if the previous owner did a mod of some type or if there is something wrong with the ECU (I would think that is where the speed limiter lives.) I have only tested this twice, once by accident (don't ask) and tonight on purpose. (Service road at airport no traffic)I welcome any thoughts on this.

Hmmm... I always thought they worked like an electronic restrictor plate.

Lemminwinks software can remove the speed limiter

I was wondering how to DISABLE the speed limiter, and I guess now I know

Your speedo will read probably 5 MPH slow (at least) at that speed.

It doesn't come off the speedo, it comes off real speed via the transmission sensor.

only works on '00 an newer

So if I unplug the speed sender from the driver's side front axle, it will disable the speed limiter

Tozo, go hit I-90 towards Elgin and let me know if this works. I'd love to rid myself of the 130MPH speed limiter as I feel that is Big Brother (or big sister) holding me back. I've hit it a few times and it is never pleasant.

never pleasant? It's damned spooky to me. It's not exactly a "soft" limiter.
