What is the topspeed that you have gone in any car? What HP did it have?
I bounced of the rev limiter(127 mph) in my old Supercharged civic a number of times, but I've only had the GSX up to 125mph. I know it's got a lot more, but I'm getting some pretty bad blow-bye.......
ive gone 135 in my car and i was at 5500 rpm, as soon as i hit 135 car backed off almost as if i hit a speed limiter. ive gone just short of 170 in my uncles 96 911 turbo.
I rode in a Supra that had the speed limiter removed and we hit just under 180mph and that was a bit crazy on a dark interstate at 2am. If there had been anything in the road at that speed that would have been our last memory.
i think there's another thread on this. but in my dad's 82 corvette, 150. that's all i know, i was too busy trying not to throw up.

i went 137 in my 92 TSi awd, stock except for k&n filter.. and my engine was missin at anything above 5k rpm at WOT, so the last 20mph or so of that was not flooring it
this was around midnite on i-80 west (2-lane) in illinois
great kills. i got mine up to 145 pretty much stock. had plenty of room left but iw as getting scared. stock suspension and stock tires had me worried. it was still pulling though.
