Just to let members know we can now remove the speed limiter on all RR Sport TDV6 engines. We have developed this modification purely for the German market

mmm,
Wonder what the top speed is for the German market
Wonder what the cost is.
Wonder how the car knows its not in Germany.
Wonder if Land Rover can detect this.

mmm, Lots of wondering going on.

Do you mean the rev limiter for the engine or the vehicle top speed limiter ?

Sounds good to me.
Must admit at 115 mph it's like driving a truck at 56 mph with the speed limiter coming in.

As far as we understand all the TDV6's have the same road speed limit across the world. Approximately 190 km/h.

So if you're German customer insist they remove it....bet they wont be able to

What will be top speed then without limiter?

Is it tyre speed ratings I wonder, although the SC has more top speed.

I havent tested the top speed as I already have 9 points on my licence

I'm sure with its 'brick like' aerodynamics probably 135, maybe 140 mph

Turbochip,

Sounds good to me too but I wonder how you, being based in the UK are going to do it? Will you be stationed at a service station somewhere in Germany for a week or so?

I am based in Switzerland right at the German border, so Stuttgart or even Frankfurt would suit me well.

It looks like I will be doing a world tour!!

If forum members can get together at a location that suits all, then I am more than happy to either drive or fly over europe to carry out these conversions

Would have had this done at the time of the upgrade about three to four weeks ago, but not sure about at the moment.
