Default Top Speed

Well i drive a 96 dodge ram (see sig) and i drive on many country roads and streches of highway where i am by myself...... i noticed my truck cuts out around 104.... is there a way to change this cause the tech is still in the mid to low rpm range and my speedo goes up to 120.... any ideas?

Not really safe to go above 104mph, that said,
Mopar performance computer (MP PCM) removes the top speed limiter. It will add 20hp/26ftlbs (crank) as well as raise your shift points but requires premium gas and shouldbe used with a180 thermostat as well.
