you need to install a turbo

no really though, get yourself a Jun chipped ecu on ebay here

ok, to REALLY answer your question, you need a different, or chipped, ecu

have you tried using the search button in red at the top right of your screen. if you dont have any mods or are going to use it strictly for track then why do it. sounds like you have a stock h22. you want to blow it up i guess and swap another one in

lol this is ghetto but it works. I looked at my wiring diagram and found the wire that gives the speed to the ecu and spliced it so that i have a switch going to it and then found the wire that goes to the speedo and spliced there as well. I believe it was the orange wire in the A socket. look it up.

so if i want to go over 120 i flip the switch and the ecu has no idea that i am moving at all. i have also noticed that i can go past 120 in fourth gear and not in fifth, so possibly there is a gear posision wire you could do this to and not have to go through the trouble of all that wiring.

or get a chip that removes it. i got one for 12 bucks, but it was impossible for me to install it myself, or anyone in town.

use the us ecu and mentioned b4, but you loose power.

be safe and don't go 120 is what i do now. its fun till you get pulled over that fast.

speed limiters are there for a reason. something on your car isnt supposed to go that fast. theres no reason to remove it unless your an idiot.

maybe sometimes you just need know what you can handle i top my stock h23 b4 i cracked a cyclinder with out checking my timing belt at 140 which is the limit to the 4th gen lude but i kept pushing it so prob 150 but who knows but now ima swap to a h22 and see what i can get that up to......so maybe topping your car out is dangerous but if your not scared of speed and you can handle yourself and know when to QUIT.....just be lazy and drag fun yes but who crashes and doesnt pay or pulls a gun on you when you beat em' whats more dangerous.....

aight forreal thanks. that did change my perspective a bit. i did what 96SinisteR_Lude
did, i blew my h23 cylinder too. but i topped that at 125 on a automatic tranny. its just i wanted to see what an h22 can do. but yea like the other guys said, i dont want to blow this one, hell no i aint gonna go through buying one again, swapping in another one just to see how fast i can get to.

I've pushed my auto H23 to 135 but most likely would have hit 140 but I was scared to rev it that high.
