Default Speed Limiter

I have a 2000 z28 A4 and i think GM put a speed limiter on it too **** me off. Can you take the speed limiter off with a predator? On the diablosport site it says speed limiter(trucks only). And if so how do you do it?


thanks

My 2000 T/A was limited to 140mph.
I soon sorted that with HP tuners. I believe you can do it with handhelds.

What did you use in the end to disable the speed limiter? was it a handheld programmer like predator?

EDIT: oh, just noticed your sig "diablosport" I guess you used that. :O)
