fuel cut off/speed limiter?
so im doing 80 on the highway, some guy comes next to me revving, whatever, i have an automatic car, im not sure where the fuel cutoff is but i think i found it.
i mash the pedal i get to 100mph in like 4 seconds, right when the speedo hits the 100mph mark, it slams me back to 4000rpm and wont climb, it was dying to go way past 100, of course the dude past me when i got slammed back to 4k rpm. but i dont plan on doing that much on the highway just acting up, i have an obd2a ecu, no way to remove the speed limiter?..fuel cutoff or whatever is happening at that speed.

I think he means, convert to OBD1, chip the ECU, run Crome.
but there is no good way to remove the speed limiter on an OBD2a ECU right now. All the little tricks that sort of work have adverse problems that are far worse than not being able to run at close to 2X the speed limit.

Because you are gonna strip your gears in an auto. I had a friend go through two trannies in his lude doing the same thing. If you wanna race convert to a manual. Also trying to change ecu's and chipping them is going to cost you more time and money than just converting or changing cars. For instance a 92-95 ex will easily cruise at 115 in 5th gear. It will go even higher in 4th. The Automatics aren't geared for this speed so you're only going to hurt your tranny which will run you at least 1200 if you can find a cheap one and want to put it in yourself.
