What? A rev limiter?!
 
:cwm21: Ok.... I just got my first Mustang...'05, V6... only 5500 miles!
Love the car... GT was out of my price range for the time being, but I was shocked to discover the rev limiter in 4th and 5th gear. Keeps the car to 115 mph (or so). Does the Xcalibrator remedy this problem? Not like I need to go that fast all the time or anything, but I'm just wondering if reflashing gets rid of that problem.

I heard there was a governor on the GT as well. Is this true?

I think it will do exactly what you are looking for. Here is a great place to buy it from: http://www.americanmuscle.com/sctxc9.html

Fastest I've gone in my '05 V6 was 105... well, at least that's what the highway patrol officer said. Personally, I think I was going faster.

Yeah when you get that limit issue dealt with, let me know how it does.?. P.S. I can tell you that looking down can get you killed, or do you really want to ask GOD what happened? The last wreck I got into was a stupid rearend job. The State Trooper asked me my side of the accident, I said officer I "looked down, I looked up, had wreck". 6 words described my ignorance! He just smiled and said that was the shortest report he ever filled out...LOL...

I always want to be able to tell the story correctly. When I was in high school I was sitting in the window of my own car with a buddy driving when he swerved around a corner and I wasn't holding on. We had done this four or five times but I was always holding on. As you can imagine I calmly exited the vehicle. When my buddy came back the first thing that I asked him was how fast he was going and he said forty. It was not a fun trip but you can understand the situation better because you know how fast we were going when I flew out the window.LOL
