G'day

I noticed on a bit of a drive from Mandurah to Bunbury the other day, that my ED will only go to about 190km/h before what I think a speed limiter kicks in.


If we got rid of this 190km/h cap, how fast will a stock ED go? And how much will it cost to remove said cap?

How do I go about it?

I dont kno how you got to 190kph in a ED falcon cause they are speed limited at 180kph...

speedo is crap...it may have been indicating 190km/h, but doesn't mean it was doing 190 ;)

or maybe I was going fast enough that i only glanced at the speedo for a split second cos I didn't want to crash into anything :D


who knows?


Believe me, after seeing those pictures, there's no way anyones going to get me to get rid of that limiter.

Besides which, when will I have to go above 180km/h? Hell, I'm going to go out on a limb here, and ask, When will I have to go above 140?
