If Mitsubishi built my 4G, and I'm sure it did, then mine is a real Eclipse too. Stock for stock I win. Thanks for watching anyway!!

My brother, in other cars it's easy, but for the 4G, Mitsu really turned the ECU into a tuner's nightmare. There are at least two tuners trying to override the ECU and after all these years (the car launched in 2005), they haven't come with a way to beat the governor or the RPM limits in a confident way. If you know someone that can do it, tell him/her there are many people that will pay him/her to do it in their cars.

@Osdresmo You can turn it off tho, it's on the ECU should be really easy for a tuner to remove it.

My car is restricted to that speed, but if it weren't it would reach a higher top speed. It was still pulling when it hit the governor, and there was the 6th gear left. I feel a little envy when there are cars that aren't governed, like your friend's.

I posted about that, check the other comments. In my case, that's as far as it goes, you can hear and see the car hit an imaginary wall at that speed, I didn't chicken out, I kept the gas pedal down, and my car didn't want to go any faster. You can always record your car and provide proof of your different top speed, though. Not saying that I doubt it, because there have been others stating the same, but it would be cool to watch other videos of top speed runs.

With the 6G75 you will get there much faster but idk if the ECU will let you go past 140MPH. Thanks for watching!
