Topped Out Saturday, SCAREY! Options

[A Bearcat's GS-T]

I went with a buddy to Brok..... a place in Oklahoma, last saturday and on the way there I decided to let my GST stretch its legs a little after I pasted a truck poking along at 60. I dropped it in to 4th and we were off to the races! The neddle on the speedometer kept climbing and climbing and climbing until it hit the buck twenty-five mark and my buddy started yelling at me to slow the **** down. So I slowed down. On the way back I just had to see how fast my lightly moded Eclipse could go. I got back to the same stretch of road and let my right foot get to know the floor-board real good. 100, 110, 120, 125, 130 and then right at 135 mph with 1000 rpm left till redline I hit what Im guessing is a govener and the gas stopped flowing and I couldn't go any faster............. What happened? How can I get rid of the govener, if that was what it was? Is that a normal thing to happen?

Thanks,
Matt

(If anyone asks, it never happened. )

Just honesty here, but if that seems like an overly daunting task, I'd avoid the advanced tuning of the EMS. Fuel control is a double-edged sword, and a system like that gives you more than enough rope to hang yourself.

On top of that, if you've got the cash laying around for an EMS with install and proper tuning, like $1500-2000, and you already have a bunch of mods, I'd look into furthering the base mods. The EMS is nice, but most of the 11 second cars are running some sort of simple piggy-back. How fast do you want to go?
