Hondata reflash question

[brooklyngenius]

Anybody that has this, perhaps you can answer me a question. I already know that it changes your car in a big way but does it remove the governor?? if not is there a way to remove it? Im just kinda disappointed with a 135 or whatever top speed.

[noahrexion^2]

how dissapointing it must be driving at 135mph in a civic...

My Si goes to 140... :)

I have the reflash, but don't know if the speed limiter is eliminated. I haven't gone that fast to find out, but why would you want/need to go faster than 135 mph? I've gone a bit over 100 mph a few times, and that was enough for the short time I did it. I was blasting by everyone on the highway.

Sorry, I don't go pass 100 mph on the freeway. I'll let you know when I go to the track.

well when you are racing AMGs and BMWs 135-140 just wont cut it.

We might have to break out the gps real soon if we dont keep and eye on him.

i have the reflash but the fastest ive gone in my Si is 105mph

[Will06SI]

126mph with out the reflash LOL !

[ender]

I've only gone over 100mph twice in my Si ...but I've gone 185 in my firend's C6 Z06

[06blaksi]

nah **** darwin and the survival of the fittest cuz ive been breakin that barrier down for a long time with viper stomping LS integras and such. I'm just curious if the reflash removes the limiter. is that a hard question?

[kevzSi]

this is straight from the hondata site

Details

The K20Z3-06Si reflash lowers the VTEC point to 4500 rpm, advances the cam angle and raises the rev limit to 8600 rpm.

We have implemented a VTEC window from 4500rpm to 5800 rpm.

Below 4500 rpm the K20Z3 is always on the low cam
Above 5800 rpm the K20Z3 is always on the high cam
Between 4500 rpm and 5800 rpm the K20Z3 is on the low cam at part throttle switching to the high cam at full throttle.
This one reflash will work well with a variety of aftermarket performance parts. It will work well with:

An intake
Cat-backs (as long as they are less restrictive than stock)
A race header *
A combination of intake and race header
(*Note that current race headers eliminate the catalytic converter and will generate a check engine light. This engine check light is for emissions and will not affect the car's performance. Race headers are for offroad use only)

You must have a minimum of an intake or header.

It is not designed to work with a stock 06/07 Civic Si and will lose power between 4500rpm and 5600 rpm if installed.

The 06 Civic employs a mass air flow sensor that automatically adjusts the air-fuel ratio for increases in air flow from intakes and race headers. Race headers will not cause this engine to run lean.

The VTEC switch point on this reflash is very smooth - much smoother than previous reflashes. With a stock air box and race header the switch point is virtually undetectable. For the reduction in VTEC "kick" and aural stimulation, we apologize, but this is the path to maximum power.

Power is gained in the midrange from 4700rpm to 6300 rpm. Power gains above 6500 rpm are negligible, although the higher rev limit will raise average power a little.

As this reflash will work with a combination of aftermarket parts we have two examples of the effect of the same reflash on two 06 Civics. (Both Civics dynoed at about 195 stock HP)

there is NO mention of the limiter being removed at all, so i would assume its still there.

yeah I have read the site so I did realize that there is no mention of it but I was curious as to know if anybody who had the reflash had hit the govern point.
