Thread: Govener removal

Tweet

[COLOR=deeppink][FONT=century gothic]I have resently got a 2003 Chevy s-10 xtreme. The Govener is set at 97 mph, does any one know how i can remove this govener???

ECM will hafta be reprogrammed, don't know who can do it,or will do it, as they set the speed governor to correspond to the speed rating for the tires , and changin it would put a big legal liability on who ever does.

ok, for one, im a girl, its not a diesel, it has a 4.3 L. vortec engine. and im not sitting here looking at the post. i have work to do, sorry im not sitting around doing nothing

you will have to for give dennyw juggalette9116, just because we sit around the house all day doing nothing, we thinks everybody else does to.

the answer to you ? is like everybody said, its programed into your computer and finding someone to change it may be hard to do. danny is a good guy though.

Thanks Mike, nothing like tripping over my own feet, getting one stuck in my mouth, hahaha.

keep it up, i love it when you do that. now theres 2 of us on the board.

In California we impeach 'em

Sorry just could not resist. But I do agree with the others, your PCM will need to be reprogrammed. There are tools on the market that will do it. You may find an auto repair shop that will do it, but they may be reluctant due to liability.

good luck and welcome to CHR

Dont you just love it when the auto manufacturers put cumputers into cars so that they can do all the thinking for you.

Denny---Whadaya mean you got nothin else to do??? aren't you the Denny thats building the 34 Chev truck?

The computer has to be reprogrammed to remove the governor. The chips increase hp and acceleration but do nothing for top speed. Should be able to get a handheld device to reprogram, but it will be expensive.
Then again I could be wrong.
