Call me stupid, but I dont know much about Intrepids, but my friends dad has a 98 2.7 intrepid that will get up and go. But my question is what is the top speed of ALL the Intrepids; ES, SE, R/T and if there are more..

Yes, usually with the 300M's, they try to keep them together. Mexican, Arabian and others (Treps or Concordes) the will mix with the others. A big run might be like, 20 to 30 in a day, not everyday though.

Hi ,so what's the best way to get rid of governor, swap ECU from R/T. I'm looking for some chip, but I can't find anythink what will help with gov..
BTW 98ES 3.2

That would be your best bet, unless you can get a dealer to flash your ECU to an R/T's etc. If you do a search in this board abot engine controllers and performance chips there should be a couple of options nut I don't know if the govenor is removed as well.

BTW "YB Normyl" there is no chip , looks like nobody cares about speed limit, WHY!!!! It sucks!!!

Right, there is no changeable chip in the ECU, I was refering to companies that claim you can add a chip that overrides certain values. A bad example would be the ones on ebay, most of which are only resistors.

Some 95 Eagles came with autostick but that shouldn't make a difference because it's the TCM that's different. Was the comparison you made under the exact same circumstances?

I can tell you from experience that YES they can reach and slightly surpass 150 mph provided that your ECU is not limited to below 149, which most are.

You have some proof of that? Your speedo only goes up to 120...

For your information the speedo on my Eagle Vision was 240 kilometers per hour and although I have a 240 kph speedo for the Trep, there's no need to put it in til my 108 mph limiter comes off. Other than the driver of the Stealth which obviously had a limiter, I don't have any proof. Maybe when the Trep is unlimited I'll remember to bring a camera.

There are many many more differences in the Police package that were not available when the R/t's were out, especially in the breaking dept. The combination of struts, springs, and spring pads is not the same and the rear swaybar is thicker.
