Last night I was racing some new eclipse on the freeway, darting in and out of traffic and when we hit the straight away I was nearing 120 but at 115 my car started to almost stutter. I'm not sure how to put it.. but it felt like I was red lining it and my car just couldn't handle it. In any case I eased off, I feared more for my engine than anything else and let the guy fly by. Any thoughts? I think I might have pushed her too hard

top speed limiter.

the eec cuts off fuel at 115ish so you cant go any faster.

! Anyway to get around that?

 

[stangin99]

chip

 

[Seph]

recommendations or they all pretty much do the same job?

 

[stangin99]

fordchip is said to be one of the best, I have my own personal opinions I will leave out.

But they are better than Superchip or Diablo.

SCT, which is a combination of FordChip, JMS, and Superchips is supposed to be the almighty in chips now.

nice I'll look into that I just need my priorities set. Like saving up for a new computer, then I'll do everything I wanted to do with my car.

I don't know why you'd care, after 120 you can prove anything.

 

[Seph]

lol i wanted to get my car to 120, that's my main goal here lol

if going 120mph is your only goal here then maybe you should re evaluate your priorities you just told us about.

You pushed it to hard when the heads go out the hood and you leave the raod covered in oil. :twisted:

120+ on public road is dumb.

you're probably even running stock tires. let me know how fast you can go before one of them blows.

[Dom]

Be consistence is when the tire blows.

i knew that. i thought you were trying to prove me wrong by saying you brought your stock tires to 135.

 

[Danger Dude]

Oh hell no I got to 116 and hit the limiter but I had brand new BFG Comp T/A's on the 15 in stock rims

Not much stock on my car

Maybe just the rotating assembly now?

 

[Danger Dude]

Yep that is about it and the body
