But that's the thing...........people won't post proof b/c they are lying...............it's been requested from early pages that this happens and low and behold..........NOTHING.............it's just gotten to be a waste of time.

Hit 200 mph in my scion tC in midnight club 3 dub edition remix for the XBOX lol It's easier and cheaper to reach your goals in video games to make your tC go over 127 mhp, Wasn't this Thread was suppose to be wrapped up. if not we can just leave it alone until someone have a video to post up?

seeing as how at cruising speed on the freeway the tach sits at like 3400 or so, where is it at when u hit the speed limitor at like 120+ mph? sounds like the engine is about to blow up i bet.

here is a link to my 120 mph run, you can barely see the tach but it gives you a good idea of where it was at.

I just finish my turbo setting, and do a test run. I'm running out of gears and ODmeter. BTW anyone pass 150mph+ is lie, unless you take over the stock ECU governor.

Scion tc will hit top speed of 150mph around at 6200rpm(redline), you will lose power right at that spot. which i have done over the weekend for testing the power.

150MPH at Redline with turbo setup
120MPH at redline with stock ( hard to keep going as stock)

Speed is RPM dependant. Therefore, adding a turbo will not change the speed at which a car redlines. So uhm, I'm calling BS on your 150MPH claim. Even with EM, the tCs gearing will only allow you to go to mid 130's. So again, more BS.

I'll do another run this weekend, unless my eye flash, i just remember see the pin after red line and ODmeter is near bottom. It was quick peek while i'm at top speed, i could be wrong but i'll have a friend do a video on it.

So either BS or not, if i was reading wrong I'm sorry. If you were wrong you don't own me an apology, you own THE tC an apology.

^Even if I give you the benefit of the doubt, the tCs speedo only goes up to 140. So how did you see 150MPH?

I sencond that ^^^^^ The tC does 65 at 3000 rpm so if said then at 130 mph you would be at 6000 rpm and if at 6200 rpm like you said, you would be doing about 135--137 mph.

Like i say, i maybe wrong when i reading the redline ( could be higher while i was just a peak)

So, i'll have some one video it while i driving, and let everyone know.
