What is the max speed on a 2018 mustang GT PP1 with governer removed. Mine reaches factory limit at 155-160 in 7th gear 6500 rpm. So I still have 8th,9th and 10th gear. Thanks Max

If I had to guess, I’d put it in the 170-180mph range. You’ll never get an official number, just people testing themselves.What is the max speed on a 2018 mustang GT PP1 with governer removed.

Thank you. Do you also know if their is anyway I can take the governor off without voiding my warranty.With 3.55 rear gear and a 27.5" tall tire, 6500 in 7th is only 150, My car dyno'd 420rwhp and GPS showed 171 in 8th at 6200, It does get there somewhat quick but you need more power if you want more speed ..

You have to assume your power train warranty will no longer be honored after flashing a tune to the PCM to remove the governor. You could get lucky and have a dealer that will work with you, but that’s not a guarantee.Thank you. Do you also know if their is anyway I can take the governor off without voiding my warranty.
I am just a speed demon. Do you think the factory axle can hold up past 160mph.You have to assume your power train warranty will no longer be honored after flashing a tune to the PCM to remove the governor. You could get lucky and have a dealer that will work with you, but that’s not a guarantee.
On another note, I have a little curiosity as to why you’d like to remove it. Don’t get me wrong, I’d love to remove the governor on mine. I have places where I can legally drive as fast as conditions permit, so it would be fun to know exactly how fast the car can go. Not a big deal, just curiosity.
Doesnt the PP1 with the big wing provide some sort of downforce?I recall an interview with a Ford engineer saying it may be aero limited beyond about 168 or so. So you’ll likely need to add downforce.

Very little, like 20-ish lbs, though that may be the PP2 front + rear spoilers, the PP1 may just be cosmetic, I cannot remember off the top of my head.Doesnt the PP1 with the big wing provide some sort of downforce?
Flashing the ECU does indeed potentially void warranty, key wording there is potentially. The dealership can see that the ecu has been modified, even if you flash it back prior to service. However, it depends on the dealership and service department as to if they’ll attempt to claim the tune is what caused whatever issue you’re bringing the car in for - generally, if you have a good relationship with your dealership (and if they aren’t jerks) there won’t be an issue.This is completely incorrect, please ignore it.

Right. It doesn’t void the warranty. I didn’t say that.it will not void your warranty.
Page 13 of the warranty booklet, under the section titled "WHAT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE NEW VEHICLE LIMITED WARRANTY? / Damage Caused by Alteration or Modification" :This is completely incorrect, please ignore it. Go ahead and tune your car, it will not void your warranty.
