no, there is no speed fuel cut, you can make the car go as fast as you want ive gone 135 in a NA before... down hill im sure u could go faster.... haha



there is a fuel cut for rev limit which is at about 7800-8000 rpm but this is for your protection

i'm not quite sure what you mean, but theres 2 i'm thinking of



1. there is a relay for the alarm system, its by the trailing coil packs, it disables the starter. in cars with no alarm, theres a jumper plugged into it



2. theres a "circuit opening" relay, it basically is a bad name for fuel pump relay, under the steering column on the right

(IMO) The stock fuel pump wiring is weak.. have you considered rewiring the fuel pump with a thicker gauge wire and puting it on a toggle switch??? (no relay worrys there)
