What perfomance options void warrenty, is it for sure that taking off the governor will void the warrenty?

Removing the limiter would def. void the engine/ drivetrain warrenty.

Wouldn't it have been great if Ford hadn't wimped out / cheaped out and put a 140 mph speedo in our V6? I mean what would it have cost to put the GT's 140 mph speedo in? I guess Ford didn't think it was going to be possible to put a supercharger or turbo in our great V6. Just my $ .02 worth.

doing rpm/gear calculators i got the car up to 141mph before it fell flat on its face.
Since the new gear install, 5th gear just cant push the car as fast it seems, stops right around 132mph (again using rpm/gear calculators)

I did 140 mph in my 02 civic Si and it had 160 hp. It was not drag limited either, that was 100 RPM shy of redline in 5th gear, if I had 6 speed option i bet i could have gotten 150. Different countries breed diferent horse's. Sure didnt get the looks in the Si as I do in the stang though
