 cam/rockers/headers, probably wouldnt have any problem turning rpms at 120mph with those, and I think it does have something to do with the pcm

Mine pulls alot harder in the 100+ range with my new pcm, it was sluggish and nonresponsive before. I dunno about 150 but I get good response at 120+

I hit 125 according to my HUD in my stock GTP. Climbed smoothly all the way to the top, and wouldn't go past 4500RPMs. Strange though, it didn't feel like the engine shut off, it just wouldn't wind past 4500.
I loved it though. I was scared stiff, but the car felt like it was stuck to the road with glue. Mmm, I love my GP!

if you stay on it, it will shut off, I thought that it would just limit the rpms also for a while but if you stay on it, it will slowly climb and then shut down when it hits the limiter

I do believe I stand corrected.....I posted that my top speed was @110......Maybe I was seeing things.......I dunno....Cause today, I raced a Toyota Solara(SP?) and was in front until my car shut down at 104. Bummer.......

hey guys, you all are talking about how your HUD is showing you these speed, past the reaches of our crappy 115mph guages, thats one option my car DIDNT come with  , does any one know if a dealership can install the Full HUD kit in a car without one and for how much?
