Getting rid of the limiter should be as simple as raising the rev limit, I would think. An ecu capable of taking over fuel injection should do the job. (Is it a fuel or ignition cut, or a throttlebody thing?) Going over 125 seems like a worthless goal if you're not modded heavily (FI) (and on a track). Getting from 125 to 130 will take forever with the .69 4th gear (4AT).

I have a 4 speed AT, with rev/speed cut, and have gone above 140 plus mph (225 km/h plus). This is including with a friend in the car (who is crazy too and only the truly crazy should go this fast). So, it can be done.
The only thing that keeps me below 150 mph (240 km/h) is the tire ratings and it would suck to have a tire blowout at that speed.

i have the 04 AT and ive made it to 130ish with stock ecu.. and for the warranty. it all depends on how good you are with your dealership. ive gone into my dealership and i told them i take it to the track and stuff and tell them i get on it, they are surprised on how well the RX8 performs.

Mazdamaniac's site says it removes the speed limiter, I believe with the cobb or an interceptor you can remove it. I don't know what else will remove it or the rev limiter.

What would you consider proof? Since those of us that have done so you would now consider lairs. I have never had a speed limiter. I had shift limiters until the install of the AP and now they have been raised considerably but still there.

I'll snap his neck.
Phil,
We need the data file from the flux capacitor
Only way I can think of to supply any form of "proof" would be to take a picture of the dash when you are doing 150+ at one of your open road races, but I would not recommend that Either that, or give an independent witness a ride during one of your races, but then you might have to hose out the passenger seat
