    reduced engine power display

    I have a 2016 Camaro 2SS that has been tuned that will show a reduced engine power display after startup. However, the car runs fine and doesn't seem to affect anything. I checked speed maxes and that's not it. Has anyone been able to get rid of this message? I have attached my current tune.

    Your speed limiter is maxed out, you need to lower it to something like 250 MPH instead of having it at 318.

    I checked in the tune and I don't have the speed limiter maxed out. Not sure if you actually looked at the tune.

    I have it already set to 8000. Not sure if increasing it anymore will help. What was yours before you bumped it up?

    Anyone have any other insight. It is so random.

    By any chance did you tune your throttle response to the point that your getting reps?

    The same thing comes up on my dash and I have a 2010 Camaro ss.It says it with all three tunes I have Flex Fuel,e85,91 octane performance. And all tunes it runs strong I just think it's a safety feature whenever the computer parameters have been changed to up the performance maybe I'm wrong but it has no effect on how my car runs from when it was stock
