Ever hit the governor on your car?

No, I've never hit our gay governor (Crist) with a car.

I reprogrammed the electro-carborator ram on my 2004 Chevy Malibu to unlock pro-level capabilities. If I wanted to I could probably go 250MPH but I haven't honed my jedi forsight abilities enough to handle those speeds around my neighborhood yet. All my friends think I have the best car they've ever paid 10% tithe to and they're probably right but whatever, I haven't even installed my N0S yet.

I hit top speed in my Mom's old Mazda 323 several years ago at 105 mph while racing a Vette. Yes, I was wiped down. I also hit the rev limiter at around 6800-7000 rpm in 5th gear in my old Volkswagen Scirocco at ~126-130mph. That was fun.

Not sure about all cars, but MOST BMW's can be "re-chipped" which will eliminate that "speed limiter", and allow you to go faster than the factory had you limited to. Of course, it also changes things like fuel mapping, timing, and several other critical engine parameters, and to get the maximum benefit from the performance boost that the chip is made for, you have to use premium gas.

Yeah pretty much any car can have it's onboard reflashed. The governor is just "digital" and cuts fuel at whatever the stock tires speed rating is.
