I suck at the auto-x :( Group: Advanced Members Posts: 1,421 Joined: 21-April 05 From: TX Member No.: 727	QUOTE (1997TA @ Oct 29 2007, 04:30 PM) Help me out. I took a rode trip to Colorado from Utah and the fastest my 1997 TA was 110 mph. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/banghead.gif) It seemed like there was governored at that speed. It started sputtering. What's up with that. Is this normal? How do I remove it????????????? It is a stock LT1 with CAI. LT1's that didn't get the speed rated tires (the 235's weren't Z rated, the 245's were) are limited to 110ish. I think the governor is in the PCM, and thus can be tuned out by any LT1 tuner. 97 is OBDII, so probably easiest to send it off to PCMForLess or someone similar.

I noticed you are fairly new here so......... Its a free country but.... This is a racing forum so we are not suggesting you should alter your governed speed for the purpose of exceeding the posted limits on public roads in unsupervised non racing applications. Bad idea. Very bad idea. See how fast your car will go on a race track..... please. Bock
