Default My ISF hit 201.5 MPH (At the Dyno)

Hey guys,

I know, I know, the Dyno cannot replicate the drag and friction you would experience on the road/track. However, after I did 3 Dyno pulls yesterday, I wanted to see if we could do a Top Speed run in the next gear up (7th).

I expected the car to hit the Speed Limiter at 173-176 mph or so like it has been stated in the many threads I've read.before. I was shocked to see it got up to 201.5 MPH before we stopped the run. I think she could have gone higher if we would've kept going

Anyway, I am posting the video of the Dyno session, which includes the Top Speed run in 7th at the end.

Only performance mod the car has is a JoeZ exhaust.

Thanks!

Great to see. It does appear that your F was under load of the dyno during the speed run.

I thought our cars came from the factory with a speed limiter.

I was at JAS today having some work done and Bill was telling me about this! Glad to see another ISF in the Gville area.

My car would only hit 176-177 on the payment or the dyno before removing the speed limiter.
I have hit 200 on the dyno a few times for fun but it's interesting that you are able to without the speed limiter removed.
I was under the impression that my car was the only N.A. Spec that was able to do this.
Has anyone else been able to run there car beyond 177?

I would like to do a top speed run to see what my car is drag limited to but they never have those events in the North East. If anyone knows of one this year let me know. Hitting 200 would be a nice bucket list item.

*let the flaming and safety lectures begin.

Since I am not the original owner of the car, I really don't know if the speed limiter was removed by the prior owner. How did you have yours removed? Is it a piece of hardware that plugs in to the ECU or something like that?

Thanks!
