Its called the speed governor. Mines cuts off at 115mph. There are ways you can bypass it is by chipping the ecu or using vtec controllers.

True,I was just about to mention that mine doesnt have a limiter either.93's Rule.

dumb ex's...good that u can't get that high tho...w/o better rubber u could blow ur tires...maybe u can't get past due to engine and aerodynamics

in 5th...what were your rmp's when the limiter kicked in...by the way, where is the rev limiter on 5th gen EX's?...there sure is a lot of red line on my tach, but im to big of a wuss to check where it stops revving

KMFDM

most all low profile tires are rated at least 150+
