Even if it’s governed, it’s unlikely the top speed would be much more than 105.

I removed the limit with a programmer on my 2013 Laramie. Had no problem doing 120 with the same motor and 3.21’s. Felt like I still had plenty left but the vision of blowing a tire made me back off. In my young and dumb years I would have kept going till it wouldn’t anymore while on bald tires.😆

Wouldn't the top speed be higher with a 3.21?
It was sarcasm. He was the guy that recently started another 3.21 vs 3.92 thread and asked if he could convert his 3.21 to 3.92.

I see you got that 3.92 gears to put a leveling kit and some 33s? That’s cute Lol btw those wheels look terrible

Oh no, you hurt my feelings. 🤣

Without diving into the drama that appears to have taken over the thread (again) and to answer the original question, yes you can eliminate the limiter with a tuner or possibly the alphaOBD set up.

The speed limiter cannot be removed with AlfaOBD.

Do you know of any good tuners ? I was looking at the pedal commander

That’s technically not a tuner. All it does is alter your throttle response. It add no power and cannot adjust anything else electronically.

I don’t have an answer for that since I haven’t looked into them since 2013. Hopefully somebody with better knowledge about what’s currently available will chime in.
