Does anyone know how to get rid of the governer. I was racing an eclipse today on I-94 and got up to about 120 and it made this noise and stoped it sucked.

1. You are officially crazy. 120 mph in a 3s? Two words for you: Road Rash.

2. The rev and speed limiter are controlled by the ECU. In order to remove the fuel/spark cut, you'd have to crack the ECU. To my knowledge, that has not been done. You could purchase a stand alone engine computer and bypass the factory ECU altogether. Of course, if you went down that road, you'd also have a big turbo and intercooler crammed under the hood.
 
Why am i crazy? It doesn't even seem like your going that fast in that car when i had my lincoln mark VIII and would go over 90 the steering wheel would shake and the car would rattel that scared the crap out of me. In this car doesn't even seem like your going that fast until you hear the thing stop speeding up. Also do they make a ecu and how do i get it done.
 
If you really think about it, how often are you gonna be touching those speeds and why. Plus if you wanna go faster than 120mph I hope that the 45seconds that you wasted doing it was worth it.
 
You could try to blackmail it and tell it you are going to tell everyone it is a homosexual. (sssh) (naughty)
 
Don't be daft.

The suspension handles well for speeds under the speed limiter, but this car was never designed/engineered for regular duty at those speeds. All it takes is one speed induced oscilliation in the suspension and you are now in oncoming traffic. I used to know guys that could got 140 miles/hour in their stock SHO Taurus, but that still doesn't mean it is smart. In fact, one of them died in a head-on collision going down Interstate 30 in Texas doing 120 MPH. His rear suspension started oscillating and he lost control. Seconds later he was a hood ornament on an 18-wheeler.
 
Wtf

1. You are officially crazy. Aren't we all a little.

2. 120 mph in a 3s? I do >100 all the time. Stable at speed and handles like a mo-fo.

3. Two words for you: Road Rash. The video game? I has doors you know. If your getting thrown out of the car road rash is the least of your problems
 
I thouhgt the cut of was 118MPH, and would about a defenser i saw one from Greedy, but to be safe keep raceing to the track its not like you win anything from reacing someone down 94 anyways

You are an idiot. Kill yourself before you kill others.
 
Two things,

1.) if you havnt passed the guy by the time your doing 120 chances are going to 130 won't help.

2.) i hope when you lose control at 120 you only kill yourself and not someone innocent of your stupidity
 
Call me an idiot too then, jeez! I went 150-160 in my integra with my Ls tranny! I was on surface/public street too!! But itwas 3:00 in the morning and i had already driven up and down the street to look for cops!! I needed the thrill!!! I was sellin the tranny and getting a civic SI one. And trust me, i couldn't go over 120 for more then 1 second in 5th gear cause i was already at like 8K+

At 120 mph, the impact force alone is enough to cause every ounce of glass in the car to shatter and most bolts to sheer off their respective nuts/studs. If you are NOT thrown from the car during an impact of that speed, you are MORE LIKELY to die. Under those forces, the car will fold up like a wad of tin foil. Crumple zones and energy absorbsion zones were only designed to dissipate energy from accidents UNDER 55 MPH. Anything more than that and you are begging to become a parapalegic.
 
Thank you IllBinfrontofya i thought everyone else on this forum was a pussy. I can't belive all of you haven't driven your cars faster then the speed limit, i know you have so when is it to fast. At 70 or 80 you will die if you lose control. My girlfriend has even had it up to 100 so i guess shes crazy too then along with all my friends.
 
Yes, everyone is a pussy for not wanting to kill others and themeselves. Please die now. kthx
