vincenzobar, what tires are you running? If you change the OE size of your wheel/ tire combination, your speed reading could be off. I have an EX & only reach about 130 MPH..

I doubt it's drag- limited IMO

from my earlier post, there probably isn't a rev- limiter in the picture.

The speed could also be gearing- limited (the drive- ratios on our cars).

I have reached ~125 on numerous occasions. I assume I could go faster, but I don't like to hold my car past 5k for extended periods of time like that... At any rate, I've never felt the power cut out on me or anything like that. I have a 2002EX 5spd.
