120 - 130 ish. Car gets a bit spooky over 110 on potholed roads.

Sloppy Mopar speedo and being clocked by my dad's 300M Special on the farm roads outside Tracy & Byron.

160 many times racing and taking people for rides. This is stock turbo with all bolt-ons and 100 shot of nitrous. Hit that speed with boost controller and exhaust before.

SRT-4 = 160MPH
R/T,ACR = 135MPH (i think)
SE/ES/SXT = 118MPH

Mine:
2003 Neon SXT w/plenty of bolt-ons: taken it to the 118MPH fuel cutout 24 hours after I bought it and that was it.

1988 Daytona 2.5L TBI, 5-speed, Dynomax muffler, homemade open element intake, 52mm throttlebody: 105MPH. All torque, no horsepower. You could bark 2nd and chirp 3rd, but getting to 100MPH was a totally different story. Car fell flat on its face after 4500RPM no matter how you timed it.

1989 Daytona ES 2.5L turbo, 3-speed automatic, bone stock: 40MPH. Hey, it had brake problems and it wasn't registered!

Wait until "the motor" is done, hehehe.

And just how did you know that with a 125MPH speedometer?!

BlackRoseRacing · Post by **BlackRoseRacing** » Tue Aug 01, 2006 6:41 am

^^^
Converted it to a digital dash that read upto 199mph

I was tired of guessing on how fast I was going with the stock 125mph gauge so I said heck with it, got my hands on a (year??) Lebaron digital instrument cluster and studied the wiring diagrams and wired it up. I actually made a plug and play removable harness to adapt the cluster, but of course thats long gone with the car.....

Post by **jonnymopar** » Tue Aug 01, 2006 2:18 pm

See, I've heard that with some of the automatics, the limiter is below 110, but I don't know where. Is it a 3spd vs. 4spd thing??

year: 2001
Motor: 2.0L SOHC Magnum
Trans: 5spd MTX
Mods. AF/X-R, UDP, CAI, DC SRT-4 3" exhaust, that's all at the time
Highest speed reached: 125 MPH almost constant from OH to IN. Slowed (read: 125-60 in like WHOA) for one cop on the way out, traffic some on the way back and one statey running laser (no clue why he didn't pull out, he got me). Got 20.25 mpg on the way to IN (I had to fill up 3/4 of the way there!). Had the thing floored the whole trip there and back and it would only go 125. (butterflies not working)

When I was stock I got it up to 120 and it got floatey--that was it

I was done!

I'll cruise the highway 90-110 usually. Car feels the best at 95-100.

Good call, but I don't even know if that applies to the 3-speed to begin with. I can't remember where I read about it. I'm almost sure it was a 109mph limiter.

Tranny: 5 speed
Mods: mopar stage3 turbo upgrade, 60mm tb, CCA FMIC, upgraded turbo piping and intake, turbo back 3" exhaust, clutchmasters stage4 clutch, lowering springs
Highest Speed: 160ish... the car could have easily gone faster, but the courage limiter kicked in hard, when said driver realized he could go to jail and never drive again if caught doing this on secondary highways

over 3 times the speed limit FTW

( i live at the edge of our city, so i always hit the country highways and go gunning around, but the speed limit is 50mph

)
