Re-chip it to have the speed limiter removed or get a USDM ECU.

there is an item which removes the speed limiter, its attached to the ECU and basically fools the ecu into thinking the speed limit hasnt been reached..i have ajdm integraSi, it cuts out at 120mph(190kmph roughly), i bought the speed de-limiter but never got round to fitting it(it costs around $100) you can buy them from the BLitz Uk
