how do you remove govenor/limiter that restricts top end speed of my acura tl 2005?

You have to get your computer tuned. look up Tune ECU or ECM. There are companies that also make tuners you can do yourself to remove the limiter and change timing of the ignition and change your rev limiter and a bunch of other stuff. just google around.

check out CHROME or NEPTUNE. they are downloadable tuning programs. you could also get a hondata chip that will eliminate the governor too.

It's part of the ECU. The only way you can do it is to have the ECU reflashed so the peak RPM is increased.

You have to chip your ECU or get a tuned ECU.
