I didnt think anyone was going to respond to this lol.I ran mine to the 150 mark just cuz I had to.At least once.Still had plenty of throttle and was sooo smooth.Was on open freeway,mid-afternoon on a sunny Florida day.Had four cars following.Hit 100 and one backed off.Went up in 10 mph increments.120 2 more backed off.Think they ran out of fuel(cutoff).!30 and only one with me was a(ironically)vw jetta.Had 5 miles to go to exit so ran it up to 150 then had to back off.2 weeks internals from catalytic converter started coming out exhaust.Another 2 weeks and was having opti issues.Surprising how fast 5 miles go by at that speed.And NO,wasnt drinking.Till I got where I was going.

If you look on Youtube you can see guys with camaros (not sure if it's LS1 or LT1), and they max out.. hit 160 mph on then they just keep speeding up but the speedo can't track it
