Well probably your car will pull more in fifth than in forth at those rpms

BlackRoseRacing · Post by **BlackRoseRacing** » Fri Oct 21, 2005 8:45 pm

Ive tried, It has more pull in 4th at those revs than 5th for obvious reasons. But as I stated, once I was in 5th, the car just did not want to go any faster. It might be due to the timing being pulled since I was running 89 VS 93 octane. I'll find out soon, and repost....

why obvious reasons?, in fifth you would be closer to your max torque output o_o

ram50rocket · Post by **ram50rocket** » Sat Oct 22, 2005 6:37 am

According to the neons.org calculator If you used 93 octane with 2 'big' bottles of "naws" that would get you up to 180mph.

the NOS comment was a joke....
F&F 1 he said the same thing because he ran into the same proplem I did

I figured to reach atleast 140mph on my speedo(not speed goverend) I would atleast need another 50hp...

louie, your my inspiration

after thinking more about it i say "fuck the bank" and im now going the NA route. i already had a spare '01 RT ecu that i picked up for $40 so i used that for the core i sent to howell for the AF/X "Race"... ill be on the lookout for a v-afc, crane #14, and the like

let the af/x-r wait begin!!! 2 weeks? .... 8 weeks? ... hopefully ill get it before christmas

, hope I didn't sound sarcastic towards you blackrose

I ran 155mph the otherday on a level part of autobahn 5 coming from frankfurt airport. I've read stock SRT-4's cut off at 153mph. I had luggage and a passenger as well.

there is, unplug your speedometer sensor

BlackRoseRacing · Post by **BlackRoseRacing** » Wed Nov 09, 2005 6:51 am

then try to giure out your speed

although you can rig up a toggle to disable it when your doing a top speed run..mmm
Might trigger an engine light though....

tamadrumr88 · Post by **tamadrumr88** » Wed Nov 09, 2005 7:10 am

well, you could use one of those rpm calculators online... figure out first how fast youd like to go before hand, and then go out and hit that rpm... that way youll know what speed you hit

As for Diablo25mn....im guessing he is talking KPH not MPH...there has not been a neon yet to reach those speeds. My 410hp daytona rev limited at 160mph....

didnt read all the pages, but me and a friend topped his 540whp srt4 at 185mph...yea gauges were replaced with srt10 gauges...

tamadrumr88 · Post by **tamadrumr88** » Sat Feb 04, 2006 8:35 pm

a new high for me.... 128mph through traffic, it started to get tight so i slowed down. not that i didnt doubt the coilovers, but they give you too much confidence on the pos stock 15's - yikes! ill try it again on the 16's

^^ that was prior to the af/x-race ecu though. ill do it again once i get my exhaust finished

why do so many of you with stock ecu's (non-acr/rt) claim 120+
...
the limiter is at 118mph
on acr/rt's its 131mph
on srt's its 148mph

03 SXT - 105

02 R/T 95 (ive not pushed it yet)

the fastest Ive gone was 125 (well the needle was past) so 125+ in my stock jeep cherokee . . . . As which time i got pulled over . . .. thought i was going to jail . . . luckily he lowered to a 95 in a 55 - had to go to court . . . . i dont speed much now . . . .

rice_eater · Post by **rice_eater** » Mon Feb 06, 2006 1:57 pm

i've done 140 in my stage 3 srt and then laid off it...the car was still pulling hard so i'm sure it can go quite a lot more but it was more than fast enough for my taste and considering it was well over 70 miles over the limit i think it was the safe thing to do

its scary how quick it accelerates, within seconds you're past 100
