hit 120mph today on my way home from a very stressful day of work. guy in a lumina was right on my arse. but the governor kicked me back to about 117mph. how can i fix this. i know its not a good idea for a car in this shape to go that fast but, for future reference.

You can't unless you change the ecu.
There are alot of threads on this, search Speed limiter, rather than govenor
Though as you will see most of those threads don't end well.
Speeding excessivly on public roads is not endorsed around here.
Take it to a track next time please

If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end. -
There is a speed limiter programmed in the ecu, its there because LX/DX's didn't come with tires that were high speed rated. EX Accords came with high speed rated tires, so they don't have speed limiters. So I would suggest you upgrade the tires at least before switching ECU's.
The ecu's you can use are from either a 90-91 Accord EX, or a 92-95 Prelude S (P12). The prelude ecu is good for an extra 10hp in a LX/DXComment

i apologize... i figured as much. but thanks for the tip.Comment

becuase the ECU from the Prelude(P12) has the same F22A1 engine in out Cbs but amazingly the prelude has a good power or 10 extra Horses......Originally posted by king_cobra View Post
