i hit 125mph on alligator alley coming back from miami. funny this is i had me and 3 other people in the car. now when ever i try it again i can get past like 115-120.....i dont get it

 

Odd, my car is a tad under 4000 rpm at 120, and the gear ratio should let it go way past 130 before hitting redline, although I think the car is topped out around there without a turbo.

 

NO ONE is going faster then 131.4 mph unless your goin downhill. Thats the max speed i got on a dyno when the fuel cut at a little before 6,300 rpms. I don't think its a speed limiter, its just the normal point for fuel cut (rev limit).

 

I hit 200 Km/H on the freeway here in Canada on my way to Calgary..just a bit before 6000RPM (redline)

 

That's correct, it's a rev limiter set to cut around 6200 RPM. So I guess the max possible speed is 131... except for people like me who have a raised rev limiter or bypassed the fuel cut

 

Alrighty.... can I be the one to ask:

How?

I have a Yellow 2002 Sh*tsubishi OZ Rally Lancer, and at 110 at 4500 in 5th I cannot go any faster. I do not know if it is speed or rev limiter, but I have slapped it down to the floor for a good 5 minutes crusin at 110 not going 1 mph faster. What is the deal? How can you fellas get 130 and so on, in sh*tty automatics? I am confused.

N/A? Not aftermarted? Not American?

 

heh yea i remember i hit like 120 in a VERY VERY long Freeway. To my surprise it wasn't that bad it felt like i was only going 70 or 80.

 

haha...i think that speed limiter on autos are more affective..cuz you can't really control your rpms and gears....if you stay on 3 or the one under Drive...you can get a higher speed than drive...once you shift into drive from your lower gears on Auto..you'll hear your car slow down literally...


yeh..after driving on the freeway...and you drive NORMAL speed limit in cities..it feels sooo slow..hahaha..yuo tend to pick up without even noticing...:wink:

 

ive hit 130 on a freeway...90 mph on a 1/4 mile run

i smoked a civic so bad

 

You did a 15.6 with no forced induction or NOS????

 

hahaha
...nicely done... show those civics who's in power..hahahahha

 

lets see... its not just a one time thing but i do about 100 mph every time i get on the freeway. Top speed 125-128 some where around there

had to edit out the street racing part -UK

 

MODS:...i have custom adjustable cam gears, custom air intake, custom exhaust, full tank gas, 600cc fuel injector. yup thats all i have....AND im runnin on my stock oz wheels. Imagine with more mods...and turbo...ill be flying..weeeeeeee

 

Very nice. Wish I could do cam gears and injectors. Any plans on using larger valves?

 

yeah later, im saving money for rebuiltin my internals. probably rods and pistons....settin my engine internals for TURBO
