Default Top Speeds

Hi all... just wondering if anyone has photo evidence of top speeds done in their 4th gens???? Was basically wondering if anyone can beat my top speed>>>

Last summer i took mine to 150mph before getting more than a little nervous about running out of the private road i was on . Unfortunatley my friend was supposed to be taking a photo for evidence while i had a death grip on the wheel and he was too busy himself in excitement.

Still i have taken a photo of my sat nav that records in its memory my max speed... and well... when i get to posting it... it will blow you ALL away

110 with mine. I started to run out of highway. I was giving chase to my bf racing a supercharged Cobra on his bike.

Can a 3.8 go that high, I thought they were governed at 118mph. Mine locks at 125mph, how do I remove the limiter?

I have had mine up to 125. I hooked up my laptop with tunercat and turned the limiter all the way up....which was 255. haha. It seems ridiculous to even have that be able to turn up that high. Anyone know what the max is for a camaro with stock gears? I assumed around 160ish.
