HOW FAST Can it GO?

[theflash]

What is the speed red line on these birds?

How fast will it go till it hits the speed limiter?

I heard 143, give or take, but never checked.

No more rev limiter on mine... buried the speedo past 140 and was still going. The RPMs become an issue at that point.

Re: HOW FAST Can it GO?

Thanks. I have only done 130 but I know it had more.

Now my bike does a true 155 on the GPS when it bumps into the Engine rev limiter, while the speedo reads 162.

November 2001 when had only had the car a month, took it out on !-40 on Thanksgiving Day in Amarillo, Tx and speed limiter kicked in at what looked like about 146 mph.

I think we need to give this assignment to Frits. He's the only one I know of in TBN who has access to the German Autobahn!

P.S. Honest, I've never drove over 120mph on the road trip. Right, Brian?

Re: HOW FAST Can it GO?

I'm with Dino on this one. Best thing I ever did, after the CAI and Borla Add to MMM, was to buy the SCT Tune. No more Rev Limiter, Tranny smoother than ever, and the red line, well lets just say that's not important anymore.

Oh Dino, have you rewired the traction control set yet....(LOL)

You know, I still have to turn it off manually. We were never able to disable it in the electronics when we did the tune. I have to track down the guy that did my car and see if he ever figured it out.

Re: HOW FAST Can it GO?

I hit the rev limiter at about 30 MPH in reverse. If I recall, the limiter kicks in at about 3500 RPM in either neutral or reverse.

My guy was able to turn it off but then I had a dash light on that i did not like so had him reset it.
