twofast 0 #27 August 1, 2006 QuotePlus the only way any chevrolet product that will go over 100 MPH is if it's chipped. GM chips them from the factory to a max of 100 MPH. umm... no. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ragnarok 0 #28 August 1, 2006 You have to have put neon lights and alot of performance stickers to get it going that fast. It is not a chip - it is called a "governer". Did you use NOS?

warpedskydiver 0 #29 August 1, 2006 QuoteQuoteGotta love GM quality. That's a good excuse if you get pulled. Officer: Ma'am do you have any idea how fast you were going? You: 150. I'm still going that fast. Kudos for remembering to put the truck in drive for the pic though. @1200 rpm I would say possibly 30mph Dammit I was driving! I swear!! I was cruisin' down the road when that pic was snapped!! And I swear on my dead granny's grave that i have NO CLUE how fast I was going!! I did take another snap....attached.

lummy 4 #31 August 1, 2006 QuoteNot sure this was the case even 10 years ago. While it's not quite 10 years old, my 97 blazer has a governor that'll keep it under 100.

ryno1972 0 #33 August 1, 2006 Considering a GM product has a governer set at 100mph. I would say you rolled you truck in a ditch and the speedo needle followed gravity and it is stuck below the peg....glad to be here!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Didn't remember till you mentioned the part about thinking the engine died. Maybe they only do it on the trucks.Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

No, I'd need some NOS & lose all of the interior in that truck to horizontally top your fall rate vertically! ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.

Remster 30 #36 August 1, 2006 My Integra's speedo wasnt working for a while either.. something about the sensor being broken, and the dealer not having the parts... The odo is linked to it, so I saved about 2000 km while on a business trip! lolRemster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ACMESkydiver 0 #40 August 1, 2006 Just FYI...the fastest I recall that I have REALLY been in that truck was just about 95mph. And yes I was freaking out. I'm sure it was a medical emergency, I just don't remember which one. ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.
