| eh, all this talk on chipped limits... I didn't know the 95's were limited. Many times I've had mine over 130. and as far as I know the computer hasn't been tampered with. I'm the 2nd owner of this car and I'm pretty sure the old guy who bought it had the speed limiter taken out. |

| I don't know about '95s though. I don't remember any govn'r on my '94 Regal.

| I have a friend who had a 95 and he said he got it over 120 plenty of times. Maybe not all had governors.
