What MPH at the 4th gear rev limiter

I have no idea where other flashes hit the rev limiter. Vishnu sets it at 7800.

Mr. IX, you aren't all the way through 4th when you finish the 1/4. You're just a little past 7k. If you were on the rev limiter (7600), you'd be trapping 110+.
Btw, so people don't get confused, you can't relate MPH at a certain RPM with trap speeds, because trap speeds are an average speed between 2 sensors at the end, which means you will hit a max trap speed that is LOWER than the max MPH at a given rpm.

100% correct. The track timing system has two sensors that are 66 feet apart. It calculates your AVERAGE speed over that last 66 feet based on the amount of time it takes the car to get from the first sensor to the second sensor.

I need to either raise my rev limit by getting a built motor, start shifting into 5th gear, or get a different gearing for the transmission (final drive change, or JDM spec 4th and 5th gear).

When R&T tested the car they had 114. That's the same as what Noize posted (113.6).
My speedo matches R&T's numbers in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, but not 4th gear.
