yeah with my superchip i already raised the speed limiter. andi have done 125 but that was all fourth gear i think the problem is 5th gear. i guess it is just really slow. other than that i don't know what it could be.

from what ive heard keep it out of 5th for as long as possible. its way too high. this is not first hand experience since i have an auto, which is easy to hustle up to that speed.
