fastest ive gone in my G is 142...havent found enough straight road to stretch it all the way out + if you get caught at that speed you can kiss your license goodbye.

Is there anyone who has removed the limiter and gotten above 150? I feel like the car stops pulling at 140...

Stupid government wants control of everything. Is there a way to remove this? Is it hard? And if we did remove it, then would that make our g's go past 160 or what?

oh crap so your saying that a c6 z06 cant go reach 200 mph (well atleast around 190+) due to this chip?
