What type of GPS? The reason I ask is that I am going to update my old unit and am just curious.

Mine goes over the 115 mark but never reaches the 120 mark so I estimate 117-118mph.
I Did it with 18'' on and tried it then with 15'' and it was the same only quicker hahaha

My GPS indicated a real max speed of 192kph (119mph). I am using a Garmin Nuvi GPS.

Because I was running a smaller than standard tire, the speedometer read a bit optimistic (200kph or 124mph).

Stands to reason that if I used a larger tire, I might be able to raise the real max speed a bit.

However at this speed, the engine is pretty much close to the redline cutoff, so I would say that is all the car would do given this combination of engine and gearbox.

130 drafting my friends Cayenne S Installed one of these to remove the speed limiter:



That's according to the speedo though and I do run shorter tires, but it felt like it wanted to keep going a bit more

Yup, a little bit more accurate than the speedometer given the variances of tires we use.

Some would say there's other better options but none are as easily accessible to the average driver as a GPS unit.

Wow, evreybody's Yaris here is so fast. Mine is A/T and after it hit 160 km/h (100mph), look like it won't go more than that, and feel scary already. Maybe because of standard suspension.

Yup, I hit my speed limiter hard the last time I was that high. It did feel like it had more to go.

Take the govner off the throttle body, and your Yaris will top out at 160 mph!

Honest!
