Thumbs up Pulled the trigger on the MP112...

Went ahead and pulled the trigger on the MP112.
It looks like it will do What I need it to do for now.
The only thing I did not like about it is that the MPH limiter
will not be bumped up to take advantage of the new found power.

Anyone around the Houston area that can remove this top end limiter ???

Should be in by next week and then I will have to find some time to drop it in.
I went ahead and got it with the big GTO heat exchanger to help out in the summer days.

What are you guys that are running up in the 500hp range done to get there?

Thanks and I wish myself luck on the install

Congrats on the new purchase. You might want to get a custom tune after you play with it a bit. It's not about going 199mph...it's about going 0-100 faster than the other guy

I completely agree, hell I even set my speed limiter at 125mph knowing good and well that I would never hit it at the track anyway's. Due to running the 4.56's, I didn't want to see my driveshaft passing me on the highway one day!

I have to add that some level of responsibility is needed with a 500hp truck...
