Speed Restrictor??
Ok, my new Dodge 5.7 litre Hemi is restricted to 105 MPH, is this something new? It sure gets there in a hurry but sticks right at 105. Does anyone know what kind of governor/restrictor is used and if it can be safely changed?

There is a wayyyyyyy.
When you hit the 105 mark, turn your key to the start position and it will be bypassed.
HOWEVER, your speedo stops working as well as you ABS.
It is a dangerous thing to do but I did it 100 times before the superchips came out.

OK, thanks for the responses. I figured there were some chips available but was surprised it kicked in at 105 mph. Speedo goes up to 120 dangit! LOL

Do yourself a favor, do not do this.
