Speed limiter set at 98

Speed limiter set at 98, but I would trust these trucks to do 140. Did 125 in my other truck when it was leveled sittn on 33's and she handled pretty good. Except the RPM's were through the roof

Mine is slow from 90-100 then it hauls *** from 110-120 then it just stops pulling at 127. It can maintain 127 but not go higher i guess it just runs out of hp, it takes a lot of juice to move this thing 127 i just wish it didnt fall flat on its face

You don't have your speed limiter? Did you tune and I miss it?

Diablo intune I-1000 can disable the speed limiter(: thought I mentioned that I got it a while back. Love the thing. I really like the change in throttle response. I actually went back to stock tune for a week when it went into the shop for regular manintenance and for that brake issue I had and so I took the time off so they didn't try to blame anything on it being tuned. So when I got it back, I completely forgot that it wasn't tuned anymore and for almost a week I couldn't figure out why it seemed so sluggish lol.

Yea I wouldn't really trust it at 140. But I have no need to go that fast, well, hell, I didn't have a need to go as fast as I was actually [emoji23] but it's a truck, I wouldn't want to go that fast in here. I'll just borrow my dad's 03 Mercedes SL55 AMG if I want to go that fast. And I'll put the top down too, just for the extra looks [emoji6]

Been there! Done that! In my old Yukon haha. Those things really do start to cut out at 127 (I just remembered it being somewhere above 120). One of my friends lives in the middle of nowhere (Violet Louisiana) and it's so far out in the middle of nowhere that even the cops don't give a damn if you speed. We drove by the police station at 80 in a 60. Then he decided to speed ahead of me and so I had to catch him. My Yukon started sputtering like it was trying to say "hey buddy, you wanna try to push this big rig this fast? No? I didn't think so! So chill!"

EDIT: also ordered some door handle covers and a tailgate handle cover just so I can try some different color ideas. Gonna try colormatching them, maybe even a colormatched stripe down the center like the Tahoe handles. The tailgate handle will be colormatched.

I figure this way I can get away with spending $40 and a few bucks on paint ideas rather then spend $100 getting the current handles painted. This way if I don't like it, I take it off [emoji106]

Yeah 127 is just the top speed i guess [emoji23] my sisters 2009 focus v4 can do 120 and hit the limiter and it still has a ton of pedal. Thats sad since i have double the cylinders and bout 120 more hp

Ah stretching the legs I see, my fastest so far is 120mph. I can these trucks definitely handle a lot better than my 2005 at 90+ mph. On a side not what is that green icon illuminated on your dash?

Lane departure icon. Actually works pretty well

Yep, like rdnckhntr said, it's lame departure warning. Works well. It's green when you are good and then flashes yellow when you are "unintentionally" exiting the lane. By "unintentionally" I mean whenever you switch lanes without your blinker. Also the side that you are exiting on, ie if you start to go to the right, then that side of your seat will vibrate.

Colormatched the chrome mirror caps today!

Also went ahead and pulled the door molding on one side to see how I like it. What do you guys think?

For anyone who says it would look better with colormatched bumper don't worry, that's on the way after I get my lift. I plan to get the Sierra G2 bumper and colormatch it.

I didn't know lane departure vibrated the seat, that's pretty cool. I'm also waiting to hear back from the guy about the G2 bumper.

Thanks Stephen [emoji106]

Thanks CJ, I really wasn't sure if I would like it but it kinda makes the sides look bigger without the molding. Kinda like an HD. [emoji57]

Makes it much easier to detail as well. Need to get mine off here soon now too!!

I'm an odd ball and like the stock trim. I think it does a good job of braking up the side of the truck.

Not an odd ball. I wasn't really sure how I would like it so I still have the ghost outline on the driver side for the door molding and I have the molding still installed on passenger side lol. In really didn't like it when I first took it off. Started thinking it was a major screw up cause now I had to put it back on perfectly cause of my OCD. But after having it off for a little while, it's growing on me. I am still considering colormatching and then reinstalling.

I did it cause for a while, I planned to keep all the stock chrome minus maybe one or 2 things. But since getting the truck, I have slowly started to really like colormatching and/or removing the chrome but still am not 110% sure which I like better
