Default KB limited speed?

Got the car out today and checked everything. Went for a drive down old long road. Hit 140 on the speedo and the car fell on it's face. Does KB leave a limit on there tune?

You can use your SCT to change this, it's in the optional parm's section. Where do you have room to go that fast?

The farther north you go the less people and more open roads. Farm country! LOL

I have my car over 160+ with the 93 octane KB tune.
I never tested the shoot-out tune for top speed.
Definately no limiter in the 93 octane tune.
Oh and I wanted to add he can't change anything with his SCT tuner because KB uses the Xcalibrator I and locks all their tunes.

I have both tunes and there is a limit on the top end for me at 140. I guess I will have to email KB and find out.
