Honda Repair: How to Take out a Speed Limiter, honda civic ex, speed limiter


Question
I was wondering how to remove my Speed Limiter on my 92 Honda Civic EX, Where Abouts is it Located?

Answer
Hi Jerid, your speed limiter is located and programmed into your ECU. There is no way to remove it physically. But, there is a way to re-chip the ECU so it gives you higher red-line shifts and a higher/unlimited MPH. You can purchase the performance chip from the Internet or a local performance shop geared towards import performance. You should also be able to have them install the part as well. Also let them no what performance modifications you have done so you can select the level of performance for the chip. (You don't want a Stage-3 performance chip if your car is daily driven. You want a Stage-1 chip.) I hope this helps you...
