Tires and driveshaft. Once a driveshaft comes out of balance at those speeds it will destruct with in seconds.

They do make one.   It requires voiding your warranty and spending a minimum of $1,900 to purchase a new unlocked computer from HP Tuners and the credits to tune it.   I doubt you'

Just ordered the Pulsar LT Control Module. Makes speed limiter changes up to 140mph. That should be enough :)

I think that your rear end ratio and the engine power will limit you right before then.  The old police tahoes had 5.3l with 3.08 rear ends and would do 139.  The new 2021 police models have 5.3l with 3.23 ratios and show 130 as a top speed.  I'd be interested in seeing what yours will do when removed.  I'm getting my WAMS deal in the mail soon.

Keep in mind the interceptor tahoes are 2WD not 4WD. 

Right... the 4WD models are limited to 121.

100 bucks more than WAMS and doesn't have nearly as many options ?

As of 2021, 125  that's 5 MPH less than the RWD.:)  What's really sad though, is that Dodge has lowered the top speed of the 5.7L Hemi Charger Police package to 140 MPH, same as the 3.6L V-6.  Weird and disappointing to many state police agencies who liked the upper 155+ MPH top speed the Charger offered.  That now puts the Ford Explorer police Interceptor with the 3.0 Egoboost as the quickest.  148 MPH top speed, 0-60 5.75 sec.

I had my ‘15 ccsb 5.3, 6 speed 4x4 with 3.42 gears going 135.  It was still climbing at 135, but I let off.

Has anyone with a T1 CCSB deleted the speed limiter and run it up?  How high did you get it and how did it feel?  I am still waiting on mine to get done.

I can't find it right now, but somewhere on YouTube there is a vid of one going 148 that has some upgrades.  Not sure what they removed the limiter with, but that's the speed they shut down at.

{edit} Looks like it was a 2018 model, now that I found the video

I set mine to 130 although the speedometer goes to 140. Took it to 120 and it was rock solid and still climbing fast. No doubt in my mind that it would peg 140 if I so chose. What I like most is the throttle sensitivity increase. No lag whatsoever and even seems to change the trans mission up shift and downshift points. Full power now at the hit. Got to be careful because it will break the tires loose under 40 mph.

Once I replace these T rated tires with some new H rated Bridgestone shoes I won't be nervous about taking it all the way.

It has zero to do with truck packages. It's strictly tire rating issues.  I have a 2021 AT4 with the 18" rims and my brother has a 2021 AT4 with the 20" rims. I cut out at 98 and his cuts out at 112ish.

Yep

 

Had a guy on here arguing up a storm about it.  I ended up getting WAMS which came with a ton of other things added

Well to be completely honest its considerably more involved than just the tire rating; many of these trucks have tires rated well beyond the top speed they are limited at. The Trucks actually have several limiters and whatever one is the lowest is the one the system utilizes. Generally this is the transfer case limit or everyones favorite the driveshaft limit 😉 If you hang around long enough with the high speed guys about 50% of the time they have a driveshaft pretzel horror story lol

My 2018 Sierra SLT 6.2L with 8 speed, Gibson Catback exhaust, S&B CAI, and Hypertech power programmer hit 130 MPH in a breeze, but my tires were only rated for that speed so that’s where I set the speed limiter too.

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Which has made me wonder with the various engine failures of a few brands in the last few years, is it sub par materials such as lifters etc causing failures, or bearing clearances on the crank etc or perhaps bad designing of an engine physically or causing too much load on the components due to the hp/torque they can push out of them. Or is the oil viscosity and additive package of current oils or a lack of oil flow by an oil pump not able to supply sufficient oil at idle or under high load at low rpm. Or is it every item I listed that combined together has pushed the limits so far to the left that there is hardly a margin of safety left and add in some fuel dilution and too long of an OCI and premature engine failure is the result ?.

      He is not saying that an SAE *W20 will have more viscosity than a *W40 due to MORE VII polymers. He is saying that although multiple *W40 may post in the PDS the same or similar 100 C and 150 C viscosities that the blenders choice of modifier TYPE and AMOUNT to get his chosen base to grade will not give identical real world viscosities in shear and at temperature. All will pass the SII test but not all will pass the 100 C HTHS (unpublished value) testing the blender does and relies on to get the required by law "percentage improvement' referenced to his last great work.    Tis the problem with the lie. Once told others are required to support it.

      Parking Brake - Automatic Engagement Questions

      By PunchT37 · Posted

      I have a `25, 1500 that auto sets on incline. Never knew that at first. I have the electronic shifter. Just think if it didn`t do that? Unlike a mechanical shift that you can muscle out of park, how would you get this thing out? That would be a problem.   What I found out later is, I don`t have to push the button to release. Just put it in gear.   Setting parameters? Don`t know if it`s possible.

      Parking Brake - Automatic Engagement Questions

      2023 GMC 3500 HD, SLE, 6.6L Gas, 4x4, 6 Spd Options:  SLE Convenience Package; Driver Alert Package 1; Spray on Bedliner; X31 Off Road Package; TRAILERING MIRRORS, HEATED POWER -ADJUSTABLE, AUTO DIMMING, WITH TURN INDICATORS WHEELHOUSE LINERS, REAR INC. REAR AXLE - 3.73 RATIO INC. GVWR, 11,350 LBS. (5148 KG) INC. FRONT AND REAR PARK ASSIST, INC. ULTRASONIC     I have been launching my new boat and noticed some things related to the parking brake.. I usually set the parking brake (habit) when on flat ground for typical driving.    When backed down on the launch ramp to launch the boat and I place gear selector into Park, the parking brake activates automatically. My second nature is to set parking brake manually and noticed I was turing the parking brake off.  The parking brake appears to be setting itself automatically.   I looked all over my owner's manual and only found references to being on an incline and manually setting parking brake, or at times parking brake will be auto engaged, but nothing specific to my situation.    When is the parking brake automatically engaged?  Under what specific circumstances?  Can the auto set parameters be changed?     I like the auto set feature.  It would be nice if always engaged when shifted into Park and released when shifted out of Park (like my wifes 2025 RAV4).   Thanks!

      www.enginelabs.com/news/what-i-learned-today-bearing-clearances-vs-oil-viscosities/     www.enginelabs.com/news/oil-viscosity-can-the-numbers-be-misleading/ The Big Lie… Coming full circle to the reason Lake discusses the Porsche engines in particular. Based on the 2000 samples in the SPEEDiagnostix database, increasing the oil viscosity in these engines, even those run on the track, showed no significant difference in results.   The smoking gun was in the oil chemistry. That is where the data shows higher instances of more wear. Molybdenum was the key; the higher the amount, the less the wear. Speed postulates that higher viscosity oils have more thickeners to artificially inflate their viscosity numbers. These thickeners lose viscosity under shear, and the result is that not all oils of the same viscosity have the same shear stability.   Having enough viscosity is the most important characteristic, but according to Speed, once that required viscosity level is reached, additive chemistry matters more than additional viscosity. Speed also states, oil pressure problems on the racetrack aren’t a viscosity problem; it’s an oiling system problem. Running a thicker oil is just a band-aid for an underlying oiling system problem.
