What is the top speed of a KA24 before the govonor kicks in? 130-135mph?
Is there any whay to bypass the govonor or get a chip that over rides it?

Thanks for any help. btw, my engine has been bored out 10mm w/ forged pistons & rods along with a port and polish. Also has a CAI, 4-1 ceramic header, full catback exhaust (@ 2.25 pipe).

 

Pretty sure theres a write up on how to get around it on the site. Use the search button promise you'll find it.

 

gov is like 115 i think.

 

No luck on a quick search to bypass that dag nab govonor. Any suggestions or help? Much thanx.

 

No dude, its there. You're not searching hard enough if you can't find it.

Here dude, I even found it for you. I typed in "speed governor" in search and the FIRST RESULT was this.

no, it's like 128mph or something like that. i read it somewhere and tried it out one day and sure enough the needle kept going past 115mph. i was worried i would brake something at that speed so i let off the gas. i was probably doing about 120mph.


edit here's the link i found it in under 20 seconds.

Did a quick search and found nothing that helped me bypass the govonor or a chip that that would do the job. Any suggestions?

 

Thanx ryguy! Try'n it out 2morrow. will post results!

 

just make sure your tires are also rated for the speed you wanna go

 

Fo sho
"All tyres are rated with a speed letter. This indicates the maximum speed that the tyre can sustain for a ten minute endurance without coming to pieces and destroying itself, your car, the car next to you and anyone else within a suitable radius at the time."

 

VERY VERY Vital info good one man

lots of people never knew of a speed rating


Q- Up to 100mph
R- Up to 106mph
S- Up to 112mph
T- Up to 118mph U- Up to 124mph
H- Up to 130mph
V- Up to 149mph W- Up to 168mph
Y- Up to 186mph
Z- 149mph and over

 

shibby! thanx dude! Good info!!!

 

is this letter or whatever located on the tier??

 

Yes.

It's where it says "load index and speed symbol"

 

I can't remember where on here I read it, but apparently, you can do about 180 MPH in a 240 (yes, really!)
