Easy fix. Take out your PCM. Kidding. Speed governor fixed in pcm memory. How fast do you want to go? Have not taken a 3 or 6 up to speed yet but have had an 8 up to 148 mph before had to shut down due to upcoming traffic on the highway. 148 mph is plenty fast for me. How fast have you pushed your 3 or 6??

I've only been doing around 90/95. I dont wanna jam the acceleration cause i'm still breaking my car in. I'll unleash her around 2000 miles on her tranny. Then I wont have to worry about how long the road is.

Lol, well I really havent push my baby yet, but I heard that she shuts down at 120. Theres and ecu upgrade on http://corksport.com/tab0.4/store/category/5rpm/ate-engine.html Dont know if it takes the speed governor off though. And
Ive been 140 with my friend in an Acura Integra gs-r.

I also found this http://www.sfxperformance.com/parts/UNI1320021.htm for the ecu. But i still dont know if that overrides the speed
governor, I might try and e-mail both companys and ask. Just have to get my e-mail working.

140 quite a rush isn't it?!?!?! Can you imagine being behind the wheel of a top fuel drag car at the end of a 1/4 mile? I can't but would be a hell of a ride.

ive gotten my m3s up to 120mph on the highway...just wouldnt go anymore...but i got up to 150mph (scary fast!!!) in my pop's Mercedes E55 AMG! going that fast cars actually look like theyre driving towards you on the highway. that car puts anything to shame.
