computer chip

The factory chip for my computer won't let me do over 110 MPH. Where can I get a new chip to override this governor and how much is it?

why spend the extra money on something like that just to be able to go an extra 20 MPH. 130 is a high rate of speed (assuming thats the top speed on the first gen). I would take the couple of hundred and get some diff mods

WOW i have a first gen 2.5 and i have actuall hit 130, no joke, it was on the freeway at like six in the morning. i was going to a volleyball tournament with three other frineds in my car and i got the spedometer to 130. i was scared ****less, i havent done it again, i dont have the balls anymore but i do take it to an occasional 120.

anyways my point is i dotn have a limiter, so i dont get why the 3.2's do.

i don't think the first gens have a speed limiter at 110.. it has to be higher cause i have a 1st gen 3.2 and i exceed 115 many times... safely that is... it is usually a few miles under what the speedo says..
