Default Top End

Hello,

What is the top end of these cars? When do they shut off? I had mine up to 141 mph on the speedo. Mine is an 04, 5.7 and a 6 speed, No Mods

I also have a 04 6-speed ran it to its limit of 158 with the speed limiter, then started down a hill and hit 163. Use the predator tuner to remove, can hit 170. 180 with maggie.

For 5 Min?? You must have been on a track, that would scare the hell out of me on the Highway to hold it there that long, I hit 163 but shut it down quickly back to 75. No tickets thankyou

just put a jack under it and then hit the gas.

you should be able to go really fast!!!!!! then when u get up to speed start rocking the car until you fall off the jack. you might even pull the wheels off the ground. lol

i dont know when they shut off my preadtor said my limiter was 155 but i had it to 150 in 5th, then went to 6th and didnt look down but i kept accerlating, so i have no idea, lets just say they will go faster than anyone needs to go on a street.
