Speed limiter is your problem. It's set to 112mph in the chip. Want to learn how you can remove it? Go to DIY PROM Board and learn learn learn!

I read a while back that if you put a switch on the VSS signal you can keep going past the 110 mark. It is a lt brown wire at the ECM if my memory serves me correct. This was about 4 years ago and I dont have any of my notes with me here in Iraq. Maybe someone knows where this info is at?

You are correct. Two clicks from the TGO home page is a tech article on how to do that.
