Limited Speedo!

[Lee75]

My speedo is limited to 112mph! is this normal?
Is there anything i can do to unlimite it?

lol yeah very normal, you can either use it as an excuse to buy a power fc :thumbs: or just buy a de-restrictor next your gonna ask me where from........i have a clue actually im sure on mine it was as simple as snipping a wire from the back of the speedo.......i could be talking bollocks though

That's strange.
Does your speedo read in mph or Km/h?
By fitting the converter-box, you shouldn't be seeing the speed-cut until 180mph.

It wasn't just a misfire or something?

Is your speedo still set to Km/h? The convertor should take care of the 112mph (or 180km/h) restriction. The recalibration tricks the restictor into thinking it needs to cut in at 180mph instead of km/h.

As stated, a PFC will remove the restriction, as will one of Jez's (Horsham Developments) custom chips.

yea, the limiter should be removed for the ESVA!!!

Apexi RSM will remove the speed restriction too

Thanks for the replys guys. its set to mph by the sva place, it has a converter at the back of the clock it does go faster than 112mph but how fast i do not know

Ah. So the speedo won't move beyond 112mph? Sounds like a faulty converter...

I have bought a car from Ireland, so need to get the clocks reading in mph, and loose the limiter too. Where can I get one? And has anyone done it before?
