i guess with a manual you can pull to the end of 4th gear instead of 3rd gear. what does 4th gear top out at on the manual?

I just hit about 117-118 mph (about 187km/h). Completely stock 2dr LB. Rolling on stock 15" steelies.
I didn't let off the gas, but at the limit, it felt like the gas pedal let off by itself, or something. I don't have a tach, so I'm not sure if it was fuel cut off, RPM limit, or speed governer??? |

if there was a limiter, then my Apexi RSM must have overided it..

This car's got a relatively "soft" rev limiter such that it doesn't bounce off the redline like most other cars do when you over-rev it.

Governor on us models clicks in at 118 the gearing on the car suggests 148 mph without it but that is not taking into account the drag on the car pushing 130 would be hard in this car.

with my new intake filter and mid-pipe i'm going to try this again. maybe i should wait until i have my lightweight summer wheels on though because right now i'm using winter tires... although, the cold air probably makes more power...
