Question 130MPH Cut-off?

some people were telling me about how thier scion cuts off at 130 mph so i tried to look into it and the only thing that showed up was a video of a turbo tc and it seemed like it "topped out" at 130. dunno if this makes sense at all but just wondering

Not with the OEM ECM. You have to run a stand-alone. You can pass the 130MPH mark if you have enough momentum going into the fuelcut. I can't do it anymore cause of the drag from my rear wing.

I am curious to know where the logic gets it's inputs from to decide when the cut-off point is reached. Obviously, the Speed Sensor is the main input, but what about the RPM signal from the Crank Angle? Knowing exactly what is going on can provide an avenue to skew or circumvent the cut-off event.

Damn dude I am sorry... no wonder why you're bent out of shape.

You should come to Texas... if you get homesick you just go south to the plains. or west to mountains... further west to desert... way south to coastline... hell we even got swamps and Mexico...
