Best Answer

If you have the appropriate control box, you can (although only mechanics typically have this). The terminal to plug it in to modify the engine controls is on the floor, between the driver's door and the driver's seat.

Bear in mind that any adjustments made will appear in the engine computer data, which will be downloaded by mechanics whenever it goes in for service. Additionally, if your truck is equipped with a Qualcomm unit, that will indicate your speed and engine performance as well, and will send an alarm to your company if you're going over the company's allowed speed (assuming it's a company vehicle).

Additionally, for owner/operators or small fleets, the regulatory speed may be a condition of the insurance policy, and this may result in a violation of the terms of the policy.

You might also want to take into account that - if you're a company driver - your company WILL fire you when they find out about it, and it will be included in your DAC report.

Depends on what your transmission is. If it's a manual, it may simply not be broken in quite yet, and you should double clutch, rather than float. It could also be possible that you're hitting the gears wrong.
