How often you wanting to hit 120 mph now?
So currently the car is entirely unmodded (unless you consider the tires a mod, which I don't). And I don't really plan on doing any mods for the foreseeable future because I'm actually only 18 as of yesterday and while I make good money for someone my age I don't really want to be throwing all of it into mods. Because I am a teen I really don't have a full understanding of what tuning actually is (I've always just imagined it as magically making the car faster by editing the cars computer), so the question that your comment leaves me with is does tuning a car only have benefits on a modded car or can it help a stock car too?

If tuning really does do nothing for a stock car then I guess I will put my dream of removing the speed limiter on the backburner for a while because that in itself is not worth $300 if it doesn't do anything else for the car.
