Speed Limiter
 
Hello,



I've had my 2003 SS up to around 115-120, I noticed that it
pulls hard to 110 and then takes a short while to get in the 120
range. I know the chip mod will eliminate the speed limiter, but
I am just curious, how fast my SS go without the limiter?
Has anyone installed a chip and if so what was the top speed driven?...

I have a supercharged ss and it doesn't have a speed limiter that i know of and I have had my car up to 135 and it seemed like it had a little more power left. I hope this helped out as much as possible.

Joe,
Thanks for your reply. That figures, GM socked it to the little guy again...lol I knew I should have footed the extra 5K on the supercharged model... What made you back off at 135? I wonder what top out is. I will do a little research on that one and post back.

i'd back out at 135 myself. but i've never gotten my monte passed 100 yet. do you know if the 96 monte Ls has a speed limiter? if so, how do i remove it?

Earth,

I am with you.... I have been up to 130 before (Not in my 03 MC) and that was enough for me. If I had a wide open road way I might have been more open to going faster, but other drivers scare me not to mention that nasty ticket if you get caught...lol

Earth,

I missed your question on the speed limiter for your vehicle. If you have one it is programmed into your puter chip. You may be able to get an aftermarket chip or a programmer.

everyone is always saying just get a chip programmer but is it really that great i mean i would like to go over 120 but does it help with the normal speeds i mean i very rarely get goin that fast so is it worth it just to go 120+

Yes, it is worth it.........


There is nothing worse than pulling away from someone only to hit a road block when you hit the speed limiter as you watch the slower car pass you. [sm=headbang.gif]
