well i would think he'd be tuned already and have the governor removed if he truly has the turbo kit installed being trifectas his only tuning option. so it shoulda already been done unless its not installed yet.

Well the garret alpha kit comes with a canned tune so he probably has that.

Killa SS, do you really need to be a dick to the OP? He didn't have a question or make a statement about his 1/4 times. Whether he runs 13s or not is irrelevant. He asked a question. Either give him the answer or GTFO of the thread. Seriously, everyone is so quick to call BS on someone.

lol. i dont see the point of that speed if hes not making power to go faster then so, in the quarter. then he claims he has this and that. prove it. if he cant. he doesnt need to have his governor removed to speed on local streets and highways. im looking at the safty aspect of it for others. so yea i will be a dick. so you gtfo if u dont wanna care about others lives.

but yet again you continue to post if he decides he wants to take the governor off you are not going to stop him he is asking a question. what you are doing is spamming his post plus i doubt you have never gone over 105 either. OP don't prove ****.

105. Thats really what it tops out at? I hit 105 when i need tp pass 2 cars following eachother on a 2 lane road. And some have hit higher than that in the 1/4 mile. Thats just a shocking top speed

it's the base model he has though. they're rated to 105 because the tires are not rated to go much faster than that. when i had my 2.2 i had it to around 120, the governor was higher because it came with better tires. in a decently modded sc or tc 105 comes damn quick though, drop to 3rd to pass a truck and you can easily be over 100 without realizing it.

Probably has higher rated tires.


Mainly the limiter is there because the tires.

Put a higher rated set of tires on there before you turn yourself into a 2900 lb ballistic missile.


Some better brakes aren't a bad idea.

I understand that you care and yes thats a good thing. But you cant tell anyone on here you have never street raced.... I do it every day ALLDAY.

And to stay on topic of this thread, My Car tops at 115 aswell. And I have an 07.
