No way you will reach 189 in a stock SS.

It depends how high the buliding is...

Not enough to reach 189. That is all that they could get out of a 1000 HP Turbo charged SS on the Velocity Channel. The GT500 with 1100 horses hit 190.

The new 650hp GT500 hit 200mph, IIRC.

Quick side question about the governor, can you remove that with any Tuner off the market or is that something done at a shop? Sorry for the bonehead question kinda new to this stuff. Thanks

I thought the SS that did 178 in the salt flats was stock. With mods, it could probably squeak out a few more mph.

PoorMansCamaro · 05-11-2012, 04:27 PM

174.4mph...

My question is: Where are you guys driving to actually hit the flat out speed?

I see many posts about removing the limiter. Why?

I won't be taking my V6 RS over 100, much less 155.
