    Exclamation speed/RPM limit cancel!!

    Hi ALL,
    I am new to TUNING, my question is I want to cancel the speed limit on my sierra 2500HD 2008 I can't pass the 180 KM/h, and one more thing I've heard that my engine uses 4 cylinders at low speeds then uses the total 8 cylenders on high speeds is there a way to cancel it??

    and finally is Gen IV V8 my engine's name or vortech V8??? thanks a lot
    I know my questions might sound EEzZZ for you guys but i really need your help thanks a lot
    cheers

    You can remove the speed limiter and change AFM activation (or turn it off if you wish) in EFILive.

    You have a Gen IV 6.0L V8 that is a Vortec 6000 (I assume since its a 2500HD its the 6.0L V8 and not the 5.3), its actual RPO code (or what GM calls it) is something different. Use wikipedia to look that up.

    You can keep it from going into 4 cylinder mode by going into EFI Live, look up the table for AFM which is {B0921}and set it to "NO" and for the speed limiter look up table {H0129} and set it at whatever speed you want!!! Be careful and don't go faster than the speed rating of the tires....

    There is a lot of speed limiter methods in the E38.
    If you look in the Speeo section you will find the speed limiter group. The important one is {H0156} Speed Limiter Source, you will need to set that to ECM as well.

    But as the warning in the software states: - ** CAUTION ** Do not set the vehicle speed limiter above the speed rating of the tires fitted to the vehicle.
    I no longer monitor the forum, please either post your question or create a support ticket.

    What those guys said!

    Cant speak for AFM as neither of my TrailBlazers have it so no idea how to turn it off, bet if I played with it for a few mins I could get it down though.

    Hi, thanks alot every one, today was my first time to use the EFILIVE, here are my questions: GMPX u mentioned ;The important one is {H0156} Speed Limiter Source, you will need to set that to ECM as well.
    i went to that one and its written: Other Module, should i write ECM instead??
    ive changed {H0129} to 200 KM/h and left the other parameter as they are 158 KM/h and reflashed my PCM and its the same my car didn;t exceed 158 :( wHYYY!!

    finally I went to {B0921} as GAMEOVER said ; searched for AFM and I found it already set NO,,, and here are the parameters : No
    625.000000
    625.000000
    625.000000
    625.000000
    625.000000
    625.000000
    3000.000000
    3000.000000
    3000.000000
    3000.000000
    3000.000000
    3000.000000
    5.999756
