Well, the speed limiter works.......

Last night I was driving home and decided to see if the factory speed limiter actually existed. My car is fairly modified but i put the ECU to stock for this run. I must say it pulled great in sixth from 80-155 and got their pretty quickly.

Nice, but what car is this?

And I wish my cars limiter was 155, mine in my Grand Prix GT is set at 108.

since Paul is MIA, I'll answer. this is his B7 S4 DTM. let's just say he has a few mods, which I'm sure he'll share with us soon...

I have a few goodies up my sleeves. Dustin (roccoman) sold me the car in May or June of 2007. It is a 2007 S4 DTM with the following performance mods:


REVO tuning
APR Downpipes
Milltek Non-res exhaust
EVO-MS intake
H&R Coilovers
OZ Ultraleggera Wheels (19X8.5 and only 18 lbs.)
Stasis rear LSD
Stasis high rear bias center differential
Hotchkis (spelling) RS4 aggressive sway bars
and last but not least.......


Snow Performance Stage 2 Water/Meth injection system

A 100 wet shot is coming very soon also along with a new clutch and light weight flywheel. Also, carbon trunk, hood, and fenders are coming with a light weight battery in the trunk.

There are a few other pieces on the car but as far as performance goes that is it.

The pic was taken on a Blackberry Bold. I also made a video of the same run over again on my phone. I will have to show it to Dustin next time I am at the dealership.
