              can the speed sensor itself go to 138mph? and show that it is going 138?

                I would think so if it was reprogrammed but you would need another speedometer ro find out.

                  speed limiter is set at 118. I have my speed limiter removed and reached 135 using my hp tuners as a speedo to see once I was over 120

                    Re: factory top speed

                    isnt 138 like close to 4800 rpms if your gears are 3.08

                    i cant imagine what it would be like if u had 3.42s or 3.73s?

                    bouncing off the rev limit?

                      that is a legitimate way....but with a cut out and T-Tops removed tho, lol. If anything the t-tops off are going to slow you down.

                        T-tops off are not going to keep you from reaching 120mph.

                          but it will limit possibly your top speed and definitely your acceleration up to that point.

                            I've had my LS1 to 150 with the tops off.

                              I know I'm limited at 118ish with my v6 in 4th or 5th gear. With my buddy driving his 97 ss, t-tops off and me waiving bye to a z28 he said we hit 150. I wasn't looking until I sat back down when we were slowing down and it said a little over 140.
