How fast have you got your P5?

[GMalatrasi]

Oh there is a switch!!!

Hold on I'll go check right now for you...

 

[GMalatrasi]

under the piece that has the three buttons there is another button that says main... you have to turn that main on and then u can use the cruise.

I got my MP5 up to 130mph would have been faster if people on the highway
would move out the way.

 

[D_Roc7822]

yeah Ive only had my protege 5 up to around the 115 mph mark... after that it just wouldnt go any farther... didnt really lose power or anything... just like the speedometer stopped climbing... but yeah I would really like to know how you got up to the 135 mph rating.... besides brian MP5T who has a rediculous amount of money into his motor and turbo setup.. cause I have a lot of the same stuff other people have on this thread... a Greddy Evo2 exhaust..MAM catless midpipe, Injen CAI, Nology Hotwires, the usual ngk plugs, and some light weight wheels like 17lbs each w/o air... car is also a automatic to.. so that might be some of the problem...

It seems as if all the auto p5's top out at 118mph. Even going downhill I cant beat it.

P.S. Auto ratios suck =(

 

[D_Roc7822]

yeah damn us and our automatics... I know next time I am definitly getting a manual... they are much much better...

 

[Mr.Ames]

I refuse to own an automagic! I dont know what I'm gonna do next week with the rental while my car is in the body shop...
I'm freakin out (boom08)

[DeadGeneration]

took my old p5 i think to 105 and it took a looooong time.

my auto legacy gt hits 100 just passing people.

the point is...by the time you guys hit 120 i have already been cruising at 100 for a mile. i couldn't imagine having a quicker car.

the last time i did it it was at night about 1am i have a set of piaa540 with hid they light up about 1km in front of the car when i got to the 50kmh zone at the toll booth there was a cop going the other way. so i payed and then gave her again he could get to the speed do to the lighting issue but i was meet 30min down the road by another cop after i shut the car down. they pulled me over but they lost sight of me and had no ID for the car so they had to let me go. that was about a year and a half ago and im still watched on that road.

ill have to get a pic of my car for u its the same paint job but in yellow and black. i seen yours and said ok its getting done.

 

[GMalatrasi]

Can you expand a lil more on this:

they pulled me over but they lost sight of me and had no ID for the car so they had to let me go.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean

 

[2002yellowpro5]

Sorry sorry i need to learn to type.
What happened was the cops had lost sight of my car and never had a discrition of my car all they new was a car was flying down the highway. the cop in kamloops figured i was the only car between him and the other officer so he pulled me over in town. But when he stopped me he couldn't prove it was me doing the speeding so i got off.

 

[blackdragon11]

137mph the night before i spun 3 bearings and bent a rod

Ok, that makes alot more sense now thanks

 

[ddudley543]

Topped out at 133 before it would do no more. Same here though with the cruise control only works up to 100.

 

[musiclikscreams]

could the mp3 reflash get rid of the drag limited crap?

 

[altspace]

Tooooo fast.
