I hit 140 this morning on the freeway. Only did it because it was nearly empty but yeah 140.

I'm curious, any V-6 owners that have had their car over 118 without reprogramming anything? Also, it seems like every V-6 should have the same top speed cause I imagine at the production level, changing the top speed governor on each V-6 depending on what tire size that Camaro has would be a nightmare???

131...

126 was fast enough on these back woods ga roads.

Just upgraded my rims and tires to the stock SS spec.:(

Yeah, more than likely. I have to, in order to get every aspect of my performance to show at the drag strip.
