03 speed limiter
This is annoying the **** out of me! It seems like it pulls really hard up until 95, then it slacks off and eases up to 100 where it stops pulling completely.
Every mod I have done yielded almost no increase mph on a strip I use to test. It seems everytime I run it I get to 95 and it starts falling down.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is it a new 'feature' where it hits the speed limiter soft instead of hitting it and cutting out? I hope EDIT will let me take this 'soft' limiter off or at least raise it up a bit. Does anyone have any info on this?

Do you get the same soft approach like thing I'm talking about at 95? Any idea on what it's doing to achieve this? I tried to log it the other day when I was running EFILive, but I couldn't get a stretch of road to run up to 100 safely.

That's it .. throttle is pulled back to about 58% and gradually backs off as it approaches 100.
It still shows to be in PE mode judging by the STFT's and the 02 readings.
On a side note .. I'm getting -10 degrees timing when it shifts. Wonder how much that kills performance?

That -10 is torque management, plain and simple.
The new electronic throttle is the speed limiter. No more cutting off fuel, it just automatically eases off the throttle, keeping you at a nice solid 95, but no more.
I moved mine up to 145 with LS1 edit, but I haven't tested it out.
