i've gone up to 125, but i'm sure she'll go faster, wouldn't try it on the freeway, probably would rather go to the tracks to figure that out. don't wanna scare/harm anyone in the process of finding out.

Well, i'll put it like this... I got my '88 Accord up to 120 on a track. I'm sure a V6 TL would do close to 135 or a tad more. Going past 110, it requires a lot more power each 10 mph to get faster. Also, our TL's are reasonably aerodynamic but nothing to write home about.

Do you have a 2.5 or 3.2? You need the additional torque when going up to those speeds.
Also, I don't recommend doing this on public roads. I've done all my excessive racing speeds at tracks. Did 125 in my '88 Accord and 115 in my '96 Civic. Fastest I've gone in my TL is 110, it was a little noisy but very stable. I don't plan on going faster, I already know it tops out at around 150 (according to a family friend who had an RL/Legend in Germany while in the Air Force)
