cutoff is 158 but you will not hit that in a stock SS/SC. I had mine up to 140 once and it still had some pull left but I have the mods in my sig (stage 2 - K&N - exhaust manifold)

I know this isn't the best place to put it but i can't make a new forum....my sticker that was on the car when i bought my 07 ss s/c has it rated at 245hp..why would it say that when chevy's site says 205...just curious to see why...

160 mph (250 km/h) with Stage 2 and a passenger, but took a long time to reach once i've entered the 5th gear.
I do not recommend it , i felt that the car was lifting off the road, but it was great to reach such a high speed with a 4 cylinder engine

i must know how u conquered 170+ when every1 else has problems hitting the limiter at 158 b/c dude that is just fuucgin insane and i want to do that maybe not 170 but i always wanted to hit 160 and hows that going to happen with a limiter at 158 or governor or whatever it is that is holding our cars true potential top speed. thought our tires were good past 160 and how did u take the governer out of the computer dude u must answere these questions b/c now i know that u are my hero and u probly have the power to go airborne i never knew our cars could even get to 173 but i guess when u combine a 2900lb vehicle with an at least close to ratio of 1hp=10lbs and a .3124 drag coefficient that is one amazing outcome and besides who really wants to go faster than 175... i have an 06 ss that has a limiter at 130 and that is toooo gay and also it was really hard to get to 130 seeing as though i had to go down a hill and at the top i was at about 120 and finally 1/2 mile later....129........129and1/2................................ 130 YES!! ive never been past 130 and would love to b/c for those moments of unrealistic reality i get high not too high but high enough for slight tunnel vision which i feel i need more, call me crazy, call me stupid butif u do then y r u reading this thread

I pegged the speedo with ease on a long ass straight away on the highway in the desert. No trafic and a passenger that is a little on the big side, he weighs 210lbs, car felt stable as hell like I was doing 100mph.
