depends entirely on the tranny.

I can't remember any particular site, but there's a few places out there that you can use to calculate top speed if you know your gear ratio & final drive.

Depends on tire size, gearing, weather conditions, and whether or not the ECU has a speed cut

Unless it's chipped, a JDM ecu has a 112 mph speed limiter...

That's why you're not getting any faster

That's interesting, I have a stock 91 si that I buried the speedometer with, making 125 mph, and have been up to 115 since then a couple times. Don't know if I have the balls to bury it again on a public road.

I've buried my speedo until it wouldn't go any farther, I mean, it stopped at the bottom of the dash. I have a chipped ECU of course. BTW the dash stops at 125 mph
