120 mph speedo upgrade

[bass1775]

Where can I get the 120 mph speedo for my 98 Tahoe? Is it plug and play or is there something that needs calibration or programming?

Do you do 120 in your Tahoe often enough to need it?

its an escalade/denali/limited cluster. id say check ebay. and yes, its plug and play

I believe the only one that is plug and play for that year is the police speedometer.

Ditto. Check out the junkyard also.

The 120mph speedo found in the Escalade/Denali/Tahoe Limited are plug and play. I have one installed.

The 130mph police speedo needs a jumper wire soldered between two points on the back of the cluster and it will work too without any other modifications.

Yes, i do 100mph quite often in my truck. (actually when I have the need for speed) Once I get to 100mph, the needle just lays there. Besides it's something about a truck that will do over a 100mph but can't see it. Anyway, what year escalades and denali am I looking for?

My truck hits 100 easily and bogs down. You need to remove the Speed limiter. Just make sure you have Z rated tires so they DONT BLOW from overheating at those speeds.

I AM NOT condoning this by the way. I hit 150 in the DSM and I was scared as shit. Never took him that fast nor ever drove him like thast again. 3rd gear pull...shit was bending. I don't know how mofos on bike do that.

Limiter has been removed, 18in Moda R-7 wheels, pirelli scorpions. Runs good and strong, good to know you can run it if you want to.

You selling that Esky gauge you picked up a while back, SAS?

 

[TahoeGoBoom]

a little off topic, but where and how do i rid myself of this speed limiter?
i rarely go that fast, but i like to know i can. last car, removal gave me 20 more mph. that was prior to the tune. so can i do it or do i have to wait for a tune?

With the hypertech programmer you can actually move the limiter to match your tire rating. I set mine to the max somewhere around 140mph. I'll never hit that with the tahoe so it is as good as gone. However I did upgrade the tires.

That's a newer model cluster and will not be a "plug and play" application.....

On the old forum, I did read about a guy putting a new cluster in an older body style like ours. IMO it was too much work for not enough pay off, but it can be done with heavy mods.
