you probably do not need to be speeding like that on the highway anyway.

most likely it's your governor, which is located within the ECU programing.

how bout you just slow down?
You can not tell me any logical reason as to why you'd need to go faster (on public roads at least)

Why would we be haters? Because you did it in the dark, really late we should congratulate you? Cops don't care what time you speed and accidents/deaths happen at all hours of the day. Not trying to be a ***** but think about it...

dude dont listen to these goslo poeple, more than likly thats all your cars got, either high milage, high altitude, or some other factor thats keepin it slow, when I got my 96ls man. it would only do about 128 and that was it unless i was on a mountain. Just keep on replacin parts till you see 165, then you'll be happy. Or just buy a 01 yamaha R1, and you'll see about 195, that's fun.

you do have a point and one day i will tell my kids that same thing, but for now nothing really stops me, i just got my license back from a year without, but that still didnt slow me down, i guess i'll either get my license taken away for good or just die. It doesnt really matter, we're only here for about 80 years or so, then we go elswhere. Now I'm not trying to be ***** either just stating my opinion.
