you wont have a problem hitting the speed limiter unless your car acheives over 470hp [img]smile.gif[/img] (roughly 12.0 or quicker)2002 5-spd NBM Camaro

depends if you regear your car, if u put like 3.73s or 4.10s in without recalibrating for them you "might" have a problem but you shouldntR.I.P \'99 Firebird, you will be missed<p>New toy - 2001 GSXR-750, Yoshimura Exhaust, Power Commander, Rebuilt Airbox

I agree. If there are different gears in the rear end you will run into problems at the end.\" As being is to becoming, so is pure itellect to opinion, so is science to belief, and understanding to the peception of shadows.\" - Plato

IF you run into the problem (and that's a pretty big if), you have 3 choices
1. Hypertech power programmer 3 (but do they make one for your year car?)
2. Custom programming (magnus, bill mach, zzperformance, etc.)
3. SLP speedo recalibrator (does it work w/ the v6? I dunno)
But your not going to run into that problem with the powerdyne.
If I may make a suggestion, how about instead of going for 6lbs of boost max (no you can't put on a smaller pulley to the powerdyne because it WILL slip), check out the ATI project. Very close to hitting the beta stage, might should contact batman and see if there are any beta spots open.
Ati will be a bit more expensive, but will have 9lbs of boost with plenty of head room.2001 75th Anniversary V6 Pewter Firebird w/ Chrome Wheels, T-Tops, & Y87<br />Mods: Free Ram Air, !Silencer, Holley Filter, Full 3\" Hooker Catback, 3\" Cat<br />Best time: 15.095 at 90.00 MPH with a 2.127 60\'

Forgot to mention that you will want to remove the speed limiter somehow before trying to see how fast you can get to 120. If I am right the governor kills fuel at 118 which would cause a lean condition which is not good. Just FYI ;)\" As being is to becoming, so is pure itellect to opinion, so is science to belief, and understanding to the peception of shadows.\" - Plato
