Default Desable Speed Limiter

How to Desable Speed Limiter on a Honda civic LX 2000??
I have mine turbo charged and and 4th gear around 6000 RPM the car reaches 210 KMH and the ECU shut down the fuel line... thats sux and can damage my engine.

Any one know a way to turn it off our fisicaly remove it? if just reprograming the ECU each software can I use for it?

What ECU are you running ^
If you get it tuned, it should rid of the limiter.
Maybe try a different basemap and/or get it done professionally.

OP is in Brazil, where (assuming Wikipedia is correct) the top highway speed limit is 110 KPH.

Basically.

Legality aside, assuming you want to do this on a track OP, you need to get a chipped and properly tuned ECU. You also need to make sure your suspension, wheel, and tire setup can handle it. Those kinds of speeds on a stock suspension, or street tires is a fast way to kill yourself.

I hope this doesn't turn into another "my accord only goes 120, how do I fix it?" thread
