msp's top speed??

[irr5302]

I was wondering if anyone ever tried to do a top speed test on the MSP, or knows what the real top speed on the MSP is??

137 in the highway very easy(wrc)

 

[_Sloteg_]

132mph was the highest it would let me go!(moon)

 

[Gbourdon]

135 and then hits the limiter

 

[srtchick]

Its @ 135 cuts out after that. ive hit that many times only on straight aways on the highway though

 

[MazdaDryvr]

I had no problem getting up to the cutoff, the speed hauls up to the line pretty damn quick. 230kms per hour.

 

[jersey_emt]

I've been up to 140 on the speedometer...didn't feel a cut...Then again stock speedometers are usually very inaccurate over 100mph

 

[BOOSTR]

120 pre-mods, 135 with mods. All I know is I hate the the limit on top speed, no matter what the reason.

 

[ONRAILS]

Just curious... what does the cut (governer) feel like when you hit it?

 

[BOOSTR]

You just coast. Its not like a boost cut.

when i hit the limiter, it was exactely like boost cut; the whole car just jerked forwards and than i started to cost back down to a "safer" mph.

The needle of my speedo hit just befroe 140 mph; I used to have a pic of it but my computer crashed and i lost it

in my car, a 2000 dx, I did around 110-112 with no fuel cut, the car just wouldn't keep accelerating..........but again, it's a 1.6L

The damn limiter kicks in on mine at 132. How do we get rid of that thing?

 

[03Speed]

i dont think u can get rid of it, i think my speedo might be a little off, not real sure. Dont have the car no more either

I'm pretty sure a standalone or piggy back will. I hit 136 but didn't hit a limiter, just didn't wanna get pulled.

 

[Demonic-Speed]

I got really drunk one night and my friend who had a camero wanted to race me. I remember looking down and it said 135mph.

(stupid)

 

[SP33D]

i hit 134mph with a passenger and 2 subs and amp in the trunk

 

[Rainman]

Not there yet, but soon I hope

Had mine up to 190 km/h easily pre-flash this winter with Toyo winter tires, but then chickened out as the highway was wet (melting snow) and there was a fair amount of traffic. It pulled quite easily to that speed. I haven't had an opportunity to take it up past that yet now that the snow is gone and the stock tires are on. I guess now I have an excuse for a roadtrip.

[DocBoom]

I hit 199km coming down a moderately steep hill. I am not sure if I hit a limiter or not. I got the feeling though that that was balls out.

 

[mazpro]

anyone know what 190 or 199 Kmh is in Mph???

The car goes to roughly 135mph, the limit changes with the weather, much like fuel cutoff at 10-12 PSI will do. Each car is also different, as is known just by how certain cars experienced different 'Hesitation' problems and such. Each car is different, but no matter which one you drive, the limit is 135mph, give or take one or two mph. Also, realize that tail wind, and grade(hills) will affect this speed, as will weather, and humidity.
