why doesnt it let me pass 130 mph...

[03MaCh1nE]

well the problem is ...is that everytime i hit 130 my car tends to not go n e more....

and when i go from 70mph to 110...my car tends to hit last gear really nast and picks up rpm's very little...

can yall please tell me what the problem is??? i drive a mach 1 2003!

I'm just guessing here...You have an Auto which is speed limited to somewhere around that area.

Also, to be frank...you probably shouldn't be going 130mph anyway.

 

[PonyboyIsaac]

well my friend had a mach1 automatic and his was governed to around 130 from the factory if i remember correctly. Is yours an automatic?

 

[GDawg]

Usually the GTs with 16" wheels stock have a speed limiter on them but a Mach...?

Yes you can adjust your RPM limiter with most hand-held tuners...and if a tree gets in your way, it shouldn't have been there in the first place!

you governor is a computer controlled factory speed limit ford put on your car, its not that your car cant go over 130 its just the computer wont let it. Yeah u can take it off with a plug in tuner or custom chip to your comp.

130? That's ridiculous. I got busted going 148 through death valley and it was not a pleasant experience. Pretty much I lost my license for 6 months, had to pay up the a** in fines, got my car towed and got a free night stay in the county jail. No good. Remember: it's not how fast you can go, it's how quickly you get there.

SCT AND DIABLOSPORT ARE THE MOST POPULAR!



the caps lock button is on the left side of the keyboard. press it



if it just flat cuts off its a limiter, if it feels like it runs out of steam it's because overdrive isn't desiged for high speed runs (which you shouldn't be doing anyway you dumbshxt, roads are for everybody not your own personal playground)


and post pics of your car dammit!

 

[pete1665]

it's your car trying to save your life

Its FORD trying to save your life

 

[RoadconeTuning]

[Mach1Run]

May as well scratch that mach off the survivors list.

 

[Kilgore Trout]

U R GHEY

GTFO, sell the Mach, and get yourself a nice Neon

Oh, and learn to work your capslock key...
