This Shyt is STOOOOpid, my 2nd Gen TypeS cuts off at 149, done it many tmes, so they are limited electronicly to 149, FACT! I dont have a 3rd Gen all I can go by is people I know and the car mags, which state the 04-06 TL 6 spd hit the wall at 152, I believe it because I saw it over and over and then I saw the video, screw conditions and his particular car, the damn thing hit 152 just like all pubs show! 07 Type S well just look a the pics!!! 149 is what he shows on his pics, and I believe road and track say 147 in their comparo, and thats electronicly limited. So thats that, I bet most of the posters never been ove 120 and havent a clue

And for Jesus sakes look at the pic of the TLS up there clearly the needle is just above the 150 mark, say 149!

I am done with this thread. There have been NUMEROUS other "Top Speed" threads out there and a LOT of what people write are based of off hear say, not actual experience. If anyone has ANY REASON to question my integrity please let me know. The facts are simple, I have a very powerful TL-S so obviously I am fully capable of getting to 150mph FAST and hitting the fuel cutoff. Plus I am in Germany so I can do it legally. I will do my best to post the vids tomorrow.

It is great cause you can see how hard I am accelerating and then it dips down a bit, picks up, dips down picks up etc etc as the fuel cutoff engages every 3-4 seconds or so.
I am not going to call BS on that guy, a lot of conditions can cause a variety of different results. All I am saying is that the TL is definitely governed to 150mph gauge reading. I will put the navi into diagnostic mode and see what it says my GPS MPH is when the fuel cutoff engages.

This is just a forum. Don't get it twisted! It's all good!

I didnt think I needed to clarify the fact that mods will enhance numbers any fool knows that. I get hyped when I have to state DAMN obvious, but um cool now
I'm done with this...you already proved my point!
