it depends really.if it was ordered or sold from the dealer/factory with 235 tires it has a fuel shut off at about 115-125 mph.if it came with 245 z rated tires there is no fuel shut off.that is what i read somewhere.think it was in my factory service manuals.They say it was safety related due to the tires

Yes, the previous post is correct. Non-speed rated tires from the Factory, the cars speed was Speed Limited (110/115 mph) by the ECM.
