Computer mods to remove governor from the 2.4 twin cam mated to a 5 speed
Does anyone know of a good tuning/ ECU programmer that will remove the governor settings on my car? The thing tops out at 110 right now, then hits the limit. I also want to tune the air/fuel ratio.
Any suggestions?

Do a search for the "Trifecta Tune", whether it'll get you much past 110 is something I can't answer for you
2.2 and 2.4 HHR's will run between 110 & 115, that's about it. While in theory, the horsepower and final drive ratios used would let a non-SS get up to 130.....they hit an aerodynamic "brick wall" and there isn't enough power to go faster.
So if you really want to haul butt, search out an SS, they'll see the other side of 140.

The little "*****" will touque steer. Just make sure if you do it yourself you know what you are doing, or find someone who does....s c
