Has anyone hit the limiter yet? I found a few posts claiming it's higher or not even there...

had mine to 160 and still pulling hard but ran out of room, so i would think that the limit, if there at all, is higher. i expected it at 155, but it went right past it.

Re: "They did a BAD BAD thing"
:-) One of the reasons our highway police (in Greece) is using cars like a Porsche (and the like). Cars that have been confiscated after being used in a crime. So, it's free for them :-) They have some good drivers behind the wheels and so, they can catch up with you... Oh, and they don't repaint the cars so that you don't recognise it's a police car untill it's too late.
About the speed limiter, I've heard similar stories but I'll have to test it myself to see. And I happen to have the best highway next to me for that! But the MTM speed (re)limiter is remapping -so to speak- the limiter to 282km/h purely for engine reasons (as they told me). Meaning the engine could have "issues" running high rev/high speed for long periods of time. I can't argue with that. I think that even the 160-170mph is good enough for me :-)
