a custom tune, only way i know of. kinda sucks that the power shuts down at 107 and you coast back down to 102 before you can go again doesn't it?

seriously why do u need to go faster than 109???? you swear like we got indy race cars n shit, but if u want it, do a custom hp tuner tune.

if your talking kph... sure. but mph, i'm calling bullshit.

and to the rest of the people in this thread... this isn't a dick measuring constest... so knock it off. driving 20-30-40 over the posted speed limit is juvenile. your just endangering the lives of others. If your gonna be a fool and kill yourself do it in a senisible way that won't hurt anyone else.

The only way you can get rid of your speed limited is to modify the computer. Question answered.

Go to www.pfyc.com , buy the DHP PCM for the alero if you want to get rid of the speed limiter. I tested it once, and went to 118 with no cars around on a highway. Personally I dont see a need to go that fast, but then again, I figure enough people will tell you that.

Another cool trick is just drive 130mph+ till your engine/transmission/tires explode(s). I think thats why the limiter is on there in the first place lol.

VERY true, i didnt want to say anything cause i dont need more people getting mad at me:lol: you said it a lot nicer than i would have:lol:

I always do 5-10 over the limit, ive never had a speeding ticket and i always get to where i wanna go on time. I dont need to be "cool" and go 100mph to get to places.

they are just askin for death and anyways our cars arent safe over 100 anyways, last and only time I did 100 in my old ho I was scared shitless cuz I was going all over the road and the vibrations were killer.

190 km/h = 118 mph

I have a governor and it kicks in at around 172-173 km/h

Go screw yourself, if your a pussy and are too scared to go fast, that's your problem. No i don't do it to be cool, i only do it when i'm by myself. If your car is maintained right, its just and stable at thoses speeds than at low speeds. at 100, you can still drive with 1 hand and when you take your hand off the wheel it still goes perfectley straight. And if you are too fucking scared to go fast or can't drive any fuckin good and endanger lives, don't do it. Its your choice, don't chew out other people for driving however fast they please. And its not just 'kids' that drive fast, lots of sane 'adults' that know how to control a car (unlike some of you obviously) go fast also.

Talk about an amazing way to alienate yourself from everyone on the forum. You cruise at 100 all you want, and when your tires blow, or you nail someone at an intersection, then you can deal with the consequences . It has nothing to do with being scared, and it has nothing to do with skill.

Put the yard stick away.

Driving excessively fast on public roads is not smart no matter how you cut it. And my guess is that most people in the Aleromod community are not going to agree with you, and I would imagine that would go double for mod's.

yeah, and a little $hit-Stick like you kills or injures somebody I care about, and I'm going to straight tear their asshole out through their throat. Guaranteed. Say something really smart to defend your stupidity.

idiots like jayson_waltz dont deserve to even be breathing right now. Im with u blackjack, many of my friends have been killed by dumb fu*cks like this guy, but honestly be my guest and speed, I hope something happens to you and u either die or are in a vegetable state of mind. Youll change ur ways once u kill someone and go to jail for 25-life and get ur cookie taken.
