No worries dogg, its only on the GS-T's and GSX's. they didnt find it necessary on our cars to have one as they dont think we'll ever go THAT FAST. pffff.... little did they know.

Are you sure? our cars are capable of high speed. And I don't think it came stock with high rated tires? What is the top speed of an RS?

Your car will go until it blows up/hits the rev limiter:P. But since you're auto (correct?) I don't think you could take it as far as a manual.

What's the most anyone here has hit? 140 or something right?

Well you asked about a govener, so i was assuming you had better tires. no stock tires arent too good to roll on at high speeds.

who cares, unless you're roadracing. You shouldn't go that fast on the street and your car wno't go that fast quarter mile.
