115mph??? WTF, I need HELP!!!
Im not the kidn of person to go out and see how fast top end I got, but I have owned my car for abour 3 months know and on the way home from school was on the interstate and got beside a mustang and was kicking his *** when all of a sudden my car hit 115 and started to cut out like it had a govenor on it. I didnt think ls1 had that. my car is a 6speed with a 155 speedo so can anyone help me out on this. Also what can I do so it wont cut off. I was waxing his *** till 115 then he just blew by me and I could never catch up or pass cuz after 115 he was gone so help!!

99ta , DMNSPD- I know all about the A4's - 2.73's having them, because I had one. But if you have a speed limiter then you have a steel driveshaft, I know my buddy with a '99 M6 Z28 had that. I could be wrong.
Maybe we can talk grubby98 into looking at his and let us know what it is? lol
Peace,
Craig.

My 2001 Z28 6 speed came with the 118 mph limiter and the steel driveshaft. Yes, it has 3.42 gears, and after researching, I've found that a number of 2001/2002 6 speeds came with the steel driveshaft. I had a friend with HPTuner, so we removed the 118 limiter. I also hit the speed limiter unexpectedly on a deserted country road, surprised the heck out of me. To tell you the truth, I probably should have left it in. I have no reason to run over 100 mph, I'm just asking for a really BIG ticket!
