I just like a higher then stock idle on anything, car or bike that is "stick" is this a chip only option?

[ closer to the min take off speed, where you can be lazy on clutch/gas n not fart n die ]

Like pringles, once ya start tweaking ya just can't stop...

900 idle, 180-190 fan kick on [ 180 stat ], vats disable, bump speed limiter to 300MPH just in case [ waiting on 228 for the stock temp range for the fan to kick on is nerve racking, cause what if it doesn't this time..... ]

Now DIY or just pay for it, hmmm whats a fair going price?

$65 on up for reprogramming, or with a moates.net burn 2, a sst27c512 eeprom and g1 adapter for the diy. The speed limiter is maxed out at 200 mph .
But who needs a speed limiter with a turbine engine.

Haven't taken it over 70, might see 75-80 but that's about it. Didn't buy it to go fast just want to tweak a few things more to my liking. as its an oddity for most with the 4+3 trans.

you able to burn me one?
