Picking up new Camaro on Monday. How to up the speed limiter?

I am picking a new 11 1LT on Monday. 6speed Manual, Black with White Racing Stripes, with 18in. rims. This car will stay stock except the exhaust will have to changed to SLP Loudmouth for sound purposes only. Also I understand this car is governed at 118 mph. How can and how much to reprogram it to max speed? I hear they actually top out around 146 mph.

Congrats!

Post plenty of pics after you pick it up

As for the rest, I'm sure some LS & 1LT owners will be able to answer.

PercyJWellingtonIII, CONGRATS, and Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to Camaro5. There is a BIG fridge on the back porch with anything you can think of in it...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. Make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom's and wive's here don't care....and take it easy.



oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here.

Welcome!!

Congrats man I have a 1LT and I love it. Mine is governed at 155 like the SS because I have the 20's. I'm not sure about getting it reprogrammed but I'm sure someone can answer that. Good luck and Enjoy!

Congrats! Welcome to the family.

Once you have Z rated tires and prove that you have them, you can use a trifecta tune to remove the governor.
