i think limiters came into play in the mid 90....so you should have no prob in your 86</P>


is the 5000 series noted for haveing a prob with the throttle getting stuck open and not being able to slow down?</P>

 

yea this weekend i went 152 in my buddys 95 m3, that was about the scaryest thing i have ever done, it was on rural roads, and any slight bump the thing would jump like crazy.

 

We've done about 121 mph in ou A4 avant TDi in France. Quite ok but our previous cars were much faster...</P>

 

i also topped out a chevy corsica 3.1 V6 i think it was a 93. the speedo only wnet up to 85 but i had it pinned for a scary long ride. flARE is right that stock engine was very fast. it was only a three speed auto, but very quick of the line.

 

before my 00 a4 1.8t i had a </P>

00 celica</P>


i got it up to 140 before the limiter kicked in around midnight on the highway... that was a rush</P>

i rememberi coasted for a few miles before it got down to 65</P>

S8 went to 130, uphill, then comin down pushed past. Got a vid of it somewhere around here, I'll see if i can find it.
Too bad she's limited, and I dont have the funding to work on her. </P><edited><editID>Gr8S8</editID><editDate>38112.6598958333</editDate></edited>

 

when i firstordered my b7 rs4 i was pretty bummed to hear that its limited to 155,but it lets me go up to 170 until im cut off

 

you must have had your hand break on lol

 

I went past 130 before but I feel bad taking my car so high into the RPM's.

 

im my a4 ive easily hit 130, fastest ive gone with the governor raised to 180mph(not removed using revotec) i got it up to 149mph almost going into redline, was going to do another pass and see if i could hit the magical 160+ but i had a bad wheel bearing from hitting a bump or something during another 100+ run and worse yet the Illinois state trooper was out in the chargers, not a god mix since it took me some time to hit 149. im pretty much done with speeding though, i found out i have cruise control.
