adjustable speed limiter program on the smarty, 35" tires, 550+ hp on tap, and power through 3500rpms...pegged the 120 speedo...gps had me at 139, i wanted to break 140 but i got scared that the valve springs would not like the high rpm and high boost so i let off there.

never again tho, stupid as hell, especially with a friend in the truck with me...a truck that big losing a tire or something at that speed...not good

oh and to add to my post, my truck's current top speed is a cool 94-95 MPH, seen on I-80 heading west into Sparks NV. wonder what ill get up to once i get my GSK installed, and then after that even...
