hello
justed tried doing top end I know a gt can do 140mph, my gauge says 110 as it import, I tried when I got to max (110) it stopped me going anymore, I thought it may have a block on it instead of loosing power it pulled me back which **** me up, how do you take it off? doenst it cost like £35 to take off if not how mucho? should it pull you back (donest seem safe)? -------------------- |

I think what you are referring to is the speed limiter which kicks in at 110 mph or whatever. It can be removed and i believe it's as simple as cutting a wire (speed sensor). Although i think that can cause other problems although I dont recall what...

Talking to various dealers, owners, and mechanics, the speed limiter depends on the tires that come stock on the car. Cars with better tires didn't have the limiter, but cars with lower grade tires have it. Spedtoe has a how-to on his site about removing the ST speed limiter, but it should be similar for a GT. |
