so today on the free way i was racing my friends srt caliber and the tc topped out at 130..

is dis wat the tc tops out at 130...
governer kicks in????

or can it go 140

 

no, you can only go 127.
in other news, flame suit: ON

 

The scion tC is electronically limited to 127 mph.

If it were not so, then it would run out of gearing shortly after.

No, it will not do 140mph without substantial work, both power-wise, and electronically to remove the speed cap.

 

you need NOS yo!

so the TC has an electronic....??? somebody please explain...

 

Its speed limited due to the Rev limiter.

 

^ Top speed is limited due to the governor, the rpm are limited by the rev limiter.


OP - don't be an a$$, take it to a track.

 

DUMB ISH!

It's people like you that make me glad Intelligence created Natural Selection.

 

Here's what is stopping you from going over 127.

 

i did 132 without topping out with my current mods.

its all fully broke-in now.

 

no you didn't.

 

i once did 180. down hill with a tail wind.

 

Even that, you were probably running from Katrina down a pretty steep hill

 

a cop pulled me over and told me i was doing 135, told him my car cant do 135, and that it tops out at 127 and he let me go..

 

I did 88 once and got lost. Took me about 23 years to get back home. Stupid Ebay mods...





Sorry, someone had to make that joke.

 

LOL random but LOL

 

LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!
If you take the speed governator out you'll gear out at 139. Why you would need to go that fast is beyond me, unless you got yer car in the father land.

 

^ seriously......
