2006 3LT with the 3900 LZ9 engine. I hit 113 MPH and it cut out, the DIC (driver info center) said like maximum speed 113 mph. and the car just wouldn't go any faster. It was weird, not like fuel cutoff, because the engine just wouldn't pull past it. but boy at 110 mph it was still pulling too!

FYI no mods at all other than sub system, sirius sattelite, and a drop in K&N replacement air filter.

some of the time they get out the factory with out a cut out in them but also you have to knwo what your looking for on some cars. some are real light so you dont feel them as much others it is liek they throw a parachute out the window.

mine was great till it hit and then it would still go past it but at the same time it didnt clim as fast but still pulled hard till then

Yeah, it was weird, the car didn't slow down, it just wouldn't accellerate... and I had plenty of road left. I so wanted to see the 140 MPH that the speedo reaches.... ahhh well, I guess Ill have to wait for a programmer
