That is a fast (110 mph) first post It thas been posted by guys in the know that do say the SS is programmed to 108 mph, you squeezed a little more out of it.

dcairns Posted April 16, 2003 Report Share Posted April 16, 2003 Gee, I have only been up to 90, so far It's a little harder to find un-monitored highways out here in the big city Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy SS Motoring I can only speak for mine, the speed cut of in the computer was set at 106. Others may be different, but I doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcairns Posted May 1, 2003 Report Share Posted May 1, 2003 I hit briefly hit 115 this morning, obviously the programming for my new supercharger has raised the limit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSilverado60 Posted May 1, 2003 Report Share Posted May 1, 2003 Mine shuts me down at 108 as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handsome25tx Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 On my way to Mississippi on a back road down there, i got it up to 108-109 and it just stayed there. Does anybody know if hypertech would solve the issue??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmcswain Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 Yep, 108-109 is the limit set at factory. Hypertech is working on a unit for the SS, should be ready soon. It will solve this problem of limited top end speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackhawk Posted July 20, 2003 Report Share Posted July 20, 2003 Yep mine is the same way 108-109 mph. I have been there a couple times now and just held it for a couple miles. I tell you what the exhaust sure does sound at 108mph. I am wondering though if holding at the limit for an extended period of time may be bad on the motor??

haynss Posted September 8, 2003 Report Share Posted September 8, 2003 I got the Diablo Predator and I believe the max speed can be tweeked to 120 or 125. I have touched 110 for like a second before the fear of a ticket kicked in . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Posted September 9, 2003 Report Share Posted September 9, 2003 Richard, Is your bowtie really black with a red border or is it a PS fixup? It looks fantastic. I hope that's the real thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
