Pic of rev limiter gremlin...
It's just my opinion, but I wish I could remove the rev limiter. It's got a lot more under it, maybe 20mph. If I needed it, I want it. Hell, a bad guy with a Yugo could run me down!
Where it kicks in:
And where it resets:

No, it's not a common occurance for me to bump 100, it's just that I don't like being choked off by a computer setpoint. I DO drive 80+ all the time (thank you V1) Almost every day I drive 45 miles home or to work and don't see another vehicle either way so haul asss mode is the norm, hell if there were a button on the dash to drop the H3 five inches for hot roadwork, I would've bought the option!
97 isn't that fast, period. The H3 has a nice, low, wide footprint and handles quite well at that speed, and probably more. It's no big deal unless you're a bad driver that isn't used to handling vehicles at high speed. If you're one of those, then 55mph is easily maintained eh?
The biggest problem I have with the limiter is that sometimes I go to pass some a-hole on a long stretch and he/she speeds up. Well, a lot of them have a limiter too and it'd be awfully nice to hand 'em their ass by walking by them while their computer is shutting them down.

Re: Pic of rev limiter gremlin...
SO How do you diable the computer limiter? And if it was disabled, how fast would the truck motor get you up to?
Are there any other issues that would be problematic if the limiter was disengaged? In regards to engine performance.

Re: Pic of rev limiter gremlin...
Isn't that the speed governer? I thought the rev limiter was different. In the photograph, the engine is hardly pushing 3,000 RPM and isn't near redline. Just curious.
