well i got mine to 133mph and it was steady and it wasnt really near redline.

I was just estimating 140 i dont really know when it would of actually cut out.

It was accelrating so slow though it would have took forever to get to 140mph

selfinfliction

you got some problems with your car then. these things rocket to 135 and it doesn't start inching until you pass 145mph

[QUOTE=selfinfliction]it doesn't get anywhere anywhere near the tach at 147 mph more like 5300~rpm here's the video to prove that inside my car.. and they do not feel light at that speed. it feels the same at 145+mph as it does at 70mph

if you're going to blatently lie about something, make sure no one has already posted videos about it


QUOTE]

In your video you say 146 and slowing down (QUOTE) get me one at 160 , would ya ?

First Off let me Clearify , That i was Driving My Car , Not you Car .All Road Conditions / wind ect are not the same Why the **** would i lie , I was at around 147- 150 mark and tach was at 5800 And at that RPM its very slow for any futher gain . YES it will go Faster if you have all the road in the world . And Yes MINE Does get lighter feeling at those speeds , I never said it was un-safe But MY Car does feel lighter over 135 mph .

2nd So next time you call someone a ******* Lier , Make sure your in the right Car ( MINE ).


3rd , Your a ******* dumb ass taking your hands off the wheel and video taping at that speed , Real intelligent .



So with that said have a Nice Day

Even the redlines feel extremely planted at that speed...I was honestly shocked at how stable it was. I've had mine to 5900 rpm in 5th...on a "closed tack" in MI...that iwth the redlines tires and gears works out to 154-155 mph. It maxed out the speedo at 140 ans I literally just held it to the floor until the rpm quit rising. I had just installed my K&N and washed it so I figred I'd take it for the "quick dry" hehe...to my dissappointment it didnt remove all the water.

What is that, like 1-2 mph?

Until the engine's in the car and you've driven that fast your speedo don't mean ****. These are my daily driver and weekend cars respectively.

selfinfliction

never said anything about 160...

Why did people vote for bush? i have no idea

you have some issues then cause that is way too high

i wouldn't call it the right car, you should take it to the shop cause it's got some serious issues. a 400-500 rpm difference on the same vehicles isn't a small amount, especially when people that have actually had their car up that fast agree with me.


rule #1 of forum flaming, make sure you use proper grammar in the process. the "your" should be replaced with "you're", it was posted incorrectly twice.

Yeah dude, IF we had like 500hp I really belive our cobalts would top out at around 165. It climbs so slowly because the gearing is so low. And when the gearing is low, the higher top speed yoiu have
