you can buy a new computer chip to change the speed or buy a computer link to change the speed manualy. if that doesn't work take it to a raceoriented shop. keep us posted.

You will need a new ECU or piggyback computer.

I put down 128 in the Si.

horsepower and drag are your main enemies here, I doubt your civic has a limited top speed of 100.

i have the coupe. and yeah, it'd take about 3 miles to get from 110 to 118 on a flat road. not really fast[&:]
