With a professional driver and on a closed test track....<g>

It appears that the limiter is about 108mph and when your out of OD at WOT, just after you reach about 90, it kicks in OD in and will not keep it in 3rd.

so, the question is can you reprogram the ECM only to remove the speed limiter and allow to stay in 3rd till redline?

SCT might?
 






Yes. I don't have a limiter on mine. I was crusing at 124mph on the dyno. :cool:

Yes, you can have any rev limiter and speed limiter you like along with selecting a transmission shifting RPM and/or speed and even under different driving conditions.

Shoot me an email with your vehicle year and engine type and I can be a little more specific.
