do you mean your top speed limitor, or your engine rev limitor. Both are on for a reason, if you come close or exceed them, you open yourself for the possability of more problems.

Most of the aftermarket chips will remove (or raise substantially) your top speed limiter.

For the daily driver, and occaisional gunner, there isn't that big of a concern.
