121mph on route 78 west in a Chrysler Sebring LX V6 (i'm pretty sure that was all it had)

Default It has been long established that the 1.8Tq trans gears out at ~147mph.

Speedo is not accurate...especially at that speed.

Default Odd...the DSM next to me got the same reading +/- 5mph...

looks like we're both not calibrated for that speed (rolls eyes)

Default I don't think the car is limited to 147 by gearing. It is around that number if the 130 mph limit is

ganked. I think drag limit is what keeps the 1.8t 5 speed limited to 145 ish. I doubt a 1.8t chipped has the ***** to overcome the drag at 150+.
Raise the rev limiter to 7000 rpm and the math says the car will do over 155. Raise the rev limiter to the 7200+ of the APR Stage III and the gear limit goes up to 165 ish ...
