              If you have a 3.4, you are screwed, but if you have a supercharged 3.4, you should already have a aftermarket fuel management system for sure!

              Only ways are to send it in to Fastchips, reprogram yourself *its a mess and not something for the new guys to even consider trying*, or buy a megasquirt of other stand alone fuel management system.

                wait wait wait guys. relax already, youre assuming wayyyy too much. the car is a 3.8 first of all. second, i didnt say my car was hitting 118 on the quarter. this was a hypothetical situation, just a way to get some info on getting rid of the governer. please dont start hating and ripping on me. im not that rediculous. and the supercharged thing is from my email, makes it easy to remember for me.

                guess ill be more careful about how i word things from now on

                    How else were we supposed to take "i would like to not be topping out on the way to the finish line"?? Of course it sounds like you were going to top out the governor on the way to the finish line.

                    Anyway... I think I do remember that your car is a 96, so slow6 is correct from what I understand.

                      For what its worth, if he had like 3.73s or 4.10s and didn't reprogram he would be hitting the speed limiter at like 100 mph maybe even less. (I don't remember what and don't feel like calculating)

                      I have seen a supercharged 3.8L hit the speedlimiter before the end of the track do to this exact problem.


                      This was back when no tuning was availible.


                      Why not just put a toggle switch on the VSS, shut it off when you go fast, and turn it back on when you are done.

                      Won't have any speedomoter though.
