You would need someone to disable that on the ECU.
Possibly by re-flashing or an aftermarket (Hondata, etc.) system.

The hybrid forum might be of more help.

The Mugen K20 ECU doesnt have a speed limiter.

In order to take the governer off, you can either get the REV SPEED METER from Apexi.

Or, You can get KPRO and tune the car at the same time and make some really good power.

Or, You can get the Hondata Reflash or a Chipped K20 ECU (i.e. spoon, mugen etc ... )

Good Luck !

FYI - Everyone just saves a little more and get's KPRO to TUNE also

120 really isn't that bad if you're on a straight and nobody else is in danger, and you don't drive like that all the time.

But I wouldn't know, I've never hit 120 in my Type DX, interstate or roadcourse.

Thanks a lot! I believe i will most likely get the hondata KPRO. Only one problem thats another $900. If anyone has a used one or something please let me know!!! Thanks again

Oh and i love to drive fast and hitting 120 is nothing in 4th gear. Man i love this motor.

Well.. Do you even have a k20 ITR, i highly doubt that. And guess what the govenor is at 125mph. And yes i am 17 years old.

And God Dam i love my car.

In order to have pictures then you need to have a digital camera which i don't have. But i will try to ask others to barrow one.
