Just to add my .02 I can only get 145ish out of my 5mt. I would like to know if an ECU reflash would take care of this limit?

Most likely it would, this would be something that can be reprogged.

I did not know this on the G. I know many cars are not like this and do not have limiters on the cruise. For instance I know BMWs will let you set the cruise all the way to 155mph. I guess it is more practical for the Germans with the autobahn.

^That makes sense. Most if not all the cars I have heard of in the States had a limit on the speed setting for cruise control.

.... If you're serious, then you don't need to go faster. If you're not serious, unamusing.
