Did ya rember to tape a block ofwood under the accelerator to keep the rpms and full power down to respectable level?
Unless you have HPP III.
Them dock boys can be quite brutal on a car. Eventhough the GOV will cover the ticket for damage up to 2500 , it will at least give you a piece of mind.
Another way is to give a nascar restrictor of about 5/8 0f inch hole infront of or behind the Maf. This will definitely limit power for it.
Just looking out for ya. I've had a couple horror stories on car shipping.

I guess he means "Hypertech Power Programmer 3" ... set rev limiter or governor to some insane values like 3000RPM or 20MPH ... :) (or how far down does it go?)
Wouldn't that be a nice anti-theft thing, also? ;)

It will only work on one car at a time . And it checks this by doing a PCM VIN # check. So basically you have to have your own HPP III.

They also have to be for your specific year. That would be cool. But the rev limiter can only be set as low as 5500 and 118 MPH. It's better than nothing.

Ahh I see I'll just have to remove the gas pedal completely then and let them idle it around! Wouldn't that be nice!
