Fuel cutoff at 121mph

Does anyone here know from experience if the S-AFC overides the stock fuel cutoff point on a d16y8 ecu? Thanks for you time

Wow not the type of reply I expected to get here. Like my orginal question stated does anyone here have EXPERIENCE with the S-AFC and the D16y8 ecu? or has anyone here removed the speed limiter on a obd2 ecu? My car has just recieved its first turbo system and I don't really want to have the fuel cutoff while I am boosting at 120mph that probably wouldn't be good for the longevity of the engine.

Well, the AFC is not going to change your cut off point and I don't think boosting at 120MPH will be good for the longevity of the engine with or without the fuel cut off.

Gotcha buddy thought you were trying to rip on my sohc, I mean ---- I hit 120 in 4th I know I can break 130 with this new turbo kit but I don't want to run outta fuel when I am pushing 6 psi through my intake. that would be bad wouldn't it?
