Default Speed Limiter ...

Well i'm not saying i tried to race anybody, but does the '06-'07 monte carlo ls have a speedlimiter after 120mph because it seemed like it wouldn't go any faster than 120mph, but i knew it had the power ....

It does have a limiter, I'm not sure what it's rated at, but it does have one.
My 03 SS had it set to about 110-115 MPH, but I could still get her up faster.
With the governer I got her up to 125 MPH and still has some juice let too.
That was before I got a upgraded PCM. (No lmiter now).

I think it is in the 119-120 area. I beleive the 04's are around that area too. My PCM took limiter out as well.

Ok... ok... Thats in KPH.. But rumour has itthat HPtuners can disable it.. I wouldntgo that fast without a tire upgrade tho.. Maybe better pads too.. Mine seem to really get cranky breaking from that speed.

My 06 3.9L 3LT has it limited at 113 MPH... Not really sure why, because it's got plenty left after that. But oh well, I rarely hit it, and never intend to stay at that speed for very long....

Any one of the tuners out there will allow you to remove the speed limiter. It's a really easy basic function.

My '06 3LT hits the limiter at 113, it even comes with its own little message in the info display..."Warning: Speed Limited to 113MPH" or something along those lines. I had a picture once but deleted it.
