    Could be - look on the drivers side door and see what the original speed rating of the tires is. Z rated tires came with a higher limiter.

    How/where would you install that? Speed and rev limiter are programmed into the PCM.

    If you don't have a clue as to what you are talking about, don't post a response. This is a tech forum... "Radio Shack"???

    The convertibles came with "better-riding" tires that had a much lower speed rating. Hence the limiter........

    I remember the Hypertechs could remove the top speed limiters as well.
