not sure how you would go about doing it, but the rev limit is there for a reason, if its raised to 10k and you rev the **** outta it, you will most likey break something.
remeber revs dont equal power, i dont you will make much/if any more power over the stock limit without alot of work done to the car..

what mods do you have done now?

do you mean you got a k24 as in the 2003+ accord motor?

i didn't know they had speed limiters, but you sure don't want to remove a rev limiter unless your motor has some work done to handle higher revs.

this is exactly why you don't buy "used" cars that have been leased...lol

rev limiter is there for a reason....if your interested in max'ing your 1/4 mile or 0-60, study the HP & torque charts for your engine and find your ideal shift points. Basically the combo of the best of each curve.

yeah, I realize that about the rev limiter, I really want to get rid of the spd limiter 125 mph is sluggish...

I heard somewhere of jumper out some wiring to accomplish this on a different car. any ideas???

werd..i got a JDM H22 with the JDM p13 ECU which has the speed limiter at ~112 even though i could probably do ~145 and i can honestly say i have never hit. although i have been close. anything over 120mph is just crazy. besides in a stock accord it takes damn long to get to that speed anyways.

Personally, I would leave the limiters alone. First off no one should ever go that fast unless at the track and second you are asking for trouble by removing rev limiter. They are there for a reason. Be smart.
