Is there any way to disable the speed limiter without a chip or controler. I've had both and don't want one on this truck but hate it shutting down at 97mph. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif[/img]

What's the point?... you only have another 3mph to go and all your gauges will cycle to zero anyway. You'll have to have someone running next to you to tell you how fast your vehicle-with-too-high-a-center-of-gravity-for-running-that-fast is going even if you do find a way to disable it.

Danster, just curious. How did you happen to discover how to disable the speed limiter using the ignition switch. I would have been afraid to turn it to start but I guess on an auto tranny in gear the starter is disabled any way.
Somebody wrote it here once. It works great. Has something to do about fooling the computer that's it at 0 mph. The starter does not engage when driving.

It was me......... but ---> I don't know how to post a link to it so maybe someone can tell me how to do it (for such a brilliant individual » what a computer putz [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]). The post was in the "6.0 forum" on July 30/04 with a number 1922387 on it.
Be advised this practice is far from safe. The ABS system is inoperable while this happening, so don't wreck. You will also have one hand on the key for the duration of the test leaving you with only one hand to control the vehicle at 130+ mph, not good.

Did you know that while going 50mph in high gear you can slam it in reverse and hit the throttle full bore and nothing happens.... [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] Darn thing will just coast.... [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]
Is this each time you want to exceed 97 or just once and it stays overridden?

I believe it only lasts 10 seconds or so.

IF you let go of the key? or if you continue to hold it in the start position, the truck will continue to speed up?

Are you asking me or telling me? Don't think I am dumb enough to try it. They make products designed to do this sort of thing, it is not something IMO that you should jack with.
Why would I spend $200.00 on a device that does the same thing as me turning the key?? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif[/img]
It works awesome...and if you have an Edge with Attitude, it is still protecting your engine from high temps!! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif[/img]
A GPS works better then your speedo anyways....plus you can show your friends that were not there that your truck does go faster than theirs...just show them the GPS. (Save your highest limits) [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smokin.gif[/img]
