I have a chance to buy a very nice '98 Grand Prix GT coupe with the non-supercharged 3.8 V-6 at a very good price. I really like the car, but the govenor is extremely annoying. I'm not looking for extra horsepower or acceleration, I just want more top speed. And yes, the car has nice H-rated tires, so there's no issue there.

What options do I have?

Thanks.

As far as i know, the only replacement PCM for the GT is the Digital Horsepower chip from Intense. In addition to removing the 105 mph limit, it does a few other go-fast upgrades like different shift points and remapped fuel/spark tables.

Hope that helps. There isn't much you can do besides replace the chip, so this seems to be your only solution.

ferb!

other good sites for parts and I have dealt with both is:

www.motorsportsperformance.com
www.grandprixstore.com

The guys at the GP store are very helpful even when you have lots of questions.
