Charger won’t go past 120
I got my SXT Plus a little over a month ago. Yesterday I went to visit my friend who’s 3 hours away in south Florida. There were a few stretches of open road where I decided to step on it and see what my baby could do. I noticed once I got to 120 it wouldn’t go any faster. Speedometer shows 140 as the top speed so I was confused why it wouldn’t go past 120. Is there a limiter or something set so it won’t go past this speed? Its amazing to me how smooth this car drives and how comfortable it is. Even going 120, which is normally considered fast (not Hellcat or Demon fast), it didn’t feel like I was going that fast. The car just cruises along so nicely. Of course when I would step on it and the RPMs would rise I would feel it jerk me back in my seat and the engine would scream (love it), but when cruising above 100, it would just ride so smoothly. Im in total love with this car. I truly feel like I have so much power under my control. And yes, I know this is only 300 horsepower, nothing compared to a Hellcat, but coming from a Celica GTS 1.4L 4cyl @ 180 HP, this is a huge improvement. |
LMAO...just because the speedo says 140, that doesn't mean that's how fast it will go lol. Where the hell you get that idea lol? Do you still have t he stock tires? Check the speed rating on them, you'll most likely find that the car is speed governed because of those. Even if they aren't the original or oem spec tires the speed governor would still be in place unless someone went in and changed it.

You would need a tuner to disable the speed limiter if you want to be "that guy" who endangers everyone around them for a cheap thrill.

Speed Limiter in Computer.
