What's the maximum speed without any mods? I think the highest we got it up to was 87 or 88, seemed strange to me, but then it probably gets less stable with more speed in an SUV.
What's the Max Speed on these Durangos?

Governed speed should be 113MPH in your Durango. A tuner like SuperChips that eliminates the limits could bump that up to 125MPH. Most likely, the D will get to 120MPH in that setup whereas I recently saw a video where that was all she had opened up.
Please keep in mind, there's speed and there's stupidity. Nothing says here in the USA you should be anywhere near those speeds. If you 'feel' drivability issues at less than 80MPH, then you have something wrong and it should be looked at soon.
As for my 2000 SLT+ 5.9 like yours?it's seen the Governed Speed on occassion before my SuperChips? never since so I can't confirm that top cap.

my stock R/T got to around 115 without cutting out. took a minute though once it hit a little over 100. didn't feel any different going 110 then it does going 70, just more wind noise and the sound of money being sucked out of my pocket for gas.
The stock PCM limits the cruise max speed. The limiter is gone in the Performance PCM from Dodge. I assume the B&G is the same as the Performance unit. I haven't given it a try yet.
You might be able to get the dealer to remove the cruise limit if you ask them nice.

NO- at least this isn't the case for second generationMWeed said:
. I live and drive in the places where speed isn't an issue, issue is a lack of speed :twisted:For last 2 years I'm looking around for box/SW/ option to remove the speed limit on my D. No luck :wall: Had a long chat with the dealer and had access to programmer, sadly didn't find the way to remove this
That's all my car can do and Japanese things are passing me on that speed?

Heading home from the DRMR HeavyD and I had our D's rolling right along. 115 is the speed limiter.
B&G Chrysler can Flash the PCM but will only max it to 125 MPH. Liabilty issues is the reason. He may go 140 MPH with a 408 Flash if you ask really nicely. Not too many D's have the HP to hit it. Throwing a brick into the wind is hard thing to do.
Your Hemi PCM can be flashed but once again he won't unlimit the Speed Limiter. Check him out here. www.bgperformancepcm.com

I've wound mine out to fuel shut-off already. Right around 115 MPH.

Here's a Hemi Ram that must have the same issue - but it'll shift @ 6500.
