he's right. get a usdm ecu if you want to go over 180kph, somewhere around 120 mph.

Yes, I have the same problem. I thought it was higher than 180 kph though, I've hit an indicated 190 kph before fuel cutoff. It really sucks, I hate it!

I have a JDM ECU.

With a Fields Vtec Controller you can get rid of the Speed Limiter.

Havn't got my car that fast to test though.
