I wonder if they have changed the govern limit? I have had mine up to 142-143ish, but I know that at least the 04 is governed at 152 IIRC


ANd I do not endorse going that fast. I was on a track.... in the middle of nowhere.... on this 2 lane road.... and I had an experience spotter.... somewhere.... spotting me.
