    Speed Limiter Success!

    Here it is guys, topped out at 115 before I ran out of road...



    And... just FYI, the last time I flashed my car was with 2.1.9...

    why the heck is your IAT @ 150?, is that before the intercooler?'

    EDIT : actually your KPA only goes to 105... is the car you were driving not turbocharged

    couldve been at a stoplight in texas to get to 150F after the ic really I would assume.

    that is odd that its pegging 103 rather then 105, but seeing that its pegged you can tell it is a boosted car.
    It doesn't have to be perfect, it just needs to be done in two weeks...

    BTW, my IAT sensor isn't in the airstream yet, its just in the engine bay, just to clear that up.

    if your having issues with it I would send your file to support at hptuners dot com im not sure if their was a need to put the fix in all OS's or if its been on a case by case basis.

    yah, I need to get mine fixed too, I was doing some testing on private roads, and seems mine is still there.

    Shifted: does you MAP only go to 103 kpa? my gauge is the same but goes to 160 or so.
    the knock you are seeing might be retard from the IAT sensor, you can 0 that out if you know it is cooler.

    oh, NM, you likely don't have the s/c reflash.

    okay... went and was doing some pulls over at LVMS with some Vette guys.

    106 limiter is still a bug in my ass. 106 and the car just simply goes HELL NO, GO HOME SPYHUNTER!

    that and now Im' getting an intermittent cut at 90mph too now. Wish I logged it, but I have my flash info... should I send?

    I would send chris your .hpt file and also a scan showing RPM, MPH etc. and inj pw and TPS% seems like thats what he needs to determine whats going on inside the computer.

    So for the limiter removal only works on Shifted's car, and Eco's.... I sent a log file to Chris again..... shows that the Rev. limiter drops injectors 1 and 4...... the Speed limiter drops injectors 2 and 3........ I dont believe I see any Spark retard when I hit the limiter anymore though...... Must be one more thing in there shutting the injectors down.

    Added my Scan log and my current Flash.
