govener kicks in at 120
my govener kicks in at 120 an boggs the engine down to 110 how do i take it out or kill it
#2
its a 93 4dr wit a D15B7
#3
stock car? chip your ecu and use crome to remove the limit would be a cheap option
#4
It could be an expensive option by having possibility of over speeding RPM or car.
#5
You'll be limited by aerodynamic drag between 125 and 130 anyway, so what's the point? Out of curiosity, why do you need to go faster than 120?
#6
Would you be doing 120 on the street or track?
#7
Judging by the fact that, to the best of my knowledge, there are no tracks in PA that a D15-powered civic will be able to hit 120, I'm going to go with the street, hence why I didn't answer his question.
And if he had a D15-powered civic that could hit 120 on a track in PA, he wouldn't need to ask how to remove a governor.

OP, basically we're saying that your engine was built for fuel economy, not speed. The car is not designed to go that fast. The speedometer might say that it can go that fast, but it's not recommended. Hence, the limiter. (And of course, the sheer stupidity and questionable legality of such speeds.)
The car is not made to handle that kind of speed. As reaper said, there's the aerodynamic drag limit. There's also the weight of a sedan. It's not safe because you likely have street tires, stock shocks and springs, stock control arms, no tie bars or strut tower bars, etc. Plus, you're likely running 89 octane pump gas.
If you want a car capable of that kind of performance, we can explain which shell and engine combinations to start with. Then we can suggest suspension upgrades and aftermarket ECU support. But to safely do the kind of performance you want to do, it's gonna cost you.

I'm going to bet that his track is Interstate 80. Have fun scraping yourself from the divider when you get a blowout.

lol wut an idiot, why not get a geo metro and try to get it to go faster than 70 mph
