Speed gov'nor?.
I have a 97 GXE auto converted to 5 speed. all 5 speed parts are swapped from a 97 SE model (including the ECU). How and why does my fuel still cuts off before 120MPH?....let me know....thanx

Anyway, have you tried interrupting the VSS signal to the ECU and see if it still governs your top speed? FTR, my '95 SE has none, and I can't seem to find any definitive source of what does and doesn't have a speed limiter (re: trim/year)

SOmeone correct me if I'm wrong.
Also when do you go 120+?

And just for reference, it's hooked up the exact same as the one on my '95:

All speedo circuits are the same, it's completely ECU dependant. Are you absolutely sure (OP) that it's a 5MT ECU?

Let me check it...I would actually think once you change the ECU from a GXE to a SE 5 speed it would comply max out instead of cutting out....my other max born an SE does not have that issue. I wonder if there is any other source that might give me fuel cut off right at 120.
