    top speed limited???

    my 93 325is M50b25tu in my 89 325i, running on a red label 413 with a Racing Dynamics chip keeps hitting a wall at 130-135ish on acceleration does anyone have any idea's.


    NO CEL, its running strong, clean, no misfire, nothin apparently wrong, speed sensor is working correctly...i have no idea what it is, the chip should remove the limiter all together right? and stock they are limited to 155? right

    any ideas would be awesome

    They're limited to around 130 generally. And you shouldn't need to go faster then that anyway. I'm glad I don't drive on your roads you fucking moron.

        I don't feel like being a dick on Christmas. But it's my birthday so yes, I do feel like being a dick. You're an idiot. What makes you think that those of us with S50s go around at 150+mph all the time? I barely break 100 at the track and on the street is just asking for trouble.

            But why would you need it to be solved if it was a one-time occurrence?

                Then go to a track and try a different chip.

                    That's the reason people flame your ass all the time. You had no idea whether it was on the street or track, and yet you open your mouth.


                    OP, you're hitting fuel cut-off, get rechipped.

                      You might just be running out of power.

                        He's running 4:10 Diff wouldn't that also be a reason ? Just a thought.

                          +2 for running out of power.

                          Speed limit = aero drag

                              -1 for running out of power.
                              +1 for running out of gearing.
