How do you take the speed governor off of a 1989 Camaro RS?

There's no speed governor in the traditional sense on a 1989 Camaro RS. The perceived speed limit is controlled by the computer's programming within the PCM (Powertrain Control Module) and interacts with other systems like the throttle position sensor and transmission control. There's no simple mechanical device like a cable-operated governor to remove.

To achieve a higher top speed (if that's your goal), you'll need to consider these factors, and it's not recommended without expertise:

* PCM Re-programming/Tuning: This is the most effective method. A professional tuner can adjust parameters within the PCM to allow for a higher top speed. This requires specialized equipment and software. Improper tuning can severely damage your engine or transmission.

* Other Limiting Factors: Even with PCM tuning, other factors may limit your top speed, such as:

* Gear Ratios: Your transmission's gearing might prevent reaching a significantly higher speed.

* Aerodynamics: Air resistance becomes a major factor at higher speeds.

* Engine Limitations: Your engine may simply not have the power to go much faster.

* Tire Speed Rating: Your tires have a maximum speed rating. Exceeding it is dangerous.

Disclaimer: Attempting to modify your vehicle's speed limiter or performance without proper knowledge and expertise can lead to serious damage to your car, injury, or even death. If you want to increase your Camaro's top speed, consult with a professional automotive tuner or mechanic. They can assess your vehicle and safely make the necessary modifications. Modifying your vehicle to exceed posted speed limits is illegal and dangerous.
