        Haven't gone past 125 but the AVG MPH (after hitting set/reset) on the OBC might give MPH info above 150mph.

            how bout the super ETA? i hit 100 today, he acceleration was pretty strong untill 100 and even on a slight down hill it didnt want to go more than 100. so the super ETA has a speed limiter of 100?

                    I have had my eta up to 130ish and my turbo car up to around 145. No limiters I have found...

                      Yes. 110-120ish with room to go.

                                Because you probably have a 3.73 rear end.
