For the last time, since people didnt bother to read the thread.....

the ex has the highest speed limiter of the civic coupe/sedan lineup. it wont let you go over 130-135. period. end of discussion.

if you saw an INDICATED speed on your speedo over that, then you fall into one of the following:

A. You have aftermarket rims/tires that are different size from stock and they have affected your speedo.

B. you have an aftermarket ECU

C. You're lying.

Mine went 127 once but after the check engine light came on it only goes 120 and cutsoff. In a rsx 145 and in a mustang gt 150 dont ever go that fast though it feels like shit!

if your that worried about the percent difference of acutal speed versus your speed on aftermarket tires then simply do the conversion and look it up to be accurate but most of the time its like .96 percent or something

a civic's top speed has NOTHING to do with your redline. your civic will not reach it's redline. even if you have the horsepower to push it, the speed limiter will kick in and stop you.
