Damn.. Where do you guys test this? Most I've gotten my 8 up to is 117.. lol..

Not sure about the NA cars but the 6MT's over here in Asia do not have any speed limiters/governers.
I've hit 252 km/h in 6th which equates to roughly 156mph.
Not going to do it again anytime soon though

best places to do it is a track if you can find one or an abandoned airfield. btw i have a 6mt so no governor for me. but the density of the air and the way your engine combusts it to make an explosion will be different pretty much wherever you drive whether its at sea level above or below. wherever you drive be safe, i know from experience ive done some dumb things and im only 20...

so with the automatics i keep hearing some are governed and some arent.. does anyone know for a fact which ones are, or if they all are? I have an 04 auto. Ill most likely be going out to the salt flats this year (about an hour away from me) to test but id like to know in advance what to expect
