I still don't agree that my car was not limited to 111mph. I had it floored for like 15 seconds on level road and the speedo wouldn't move. Now it blows past 111 like nobody's business.

Sorry to revive an old thread...but is there a limiter on the 7th gen Accord...I've been to the land of 120 and it still increases....slowly but steadily. The 03-07 TSX limits output at 230 km/h, aka 140 mph. I'm guessin the same applied to my Accord?

I have no intentions of going 140 .....120 was already hella fast for me.

EDIT- Even thought a minimal amount of work is done to my vehicle, it's pretty amazing at the potential of the K-block. It runs easily to 100+ without breaking a sweat....It only slows down its rate of increase after 120. I can't wait to test run my Accord with my new headers.

^ I'ma revive this too, same question...

I've got my 03 4 banger auto, whats the speed I'm limited at? with governor or drag limit. IDK if I'm not driving long enough or whatnot but I've never hit above 110. is it a coincidence or not?

NEVERMIND: I went a speedometer indicated 125mph. that's more than fast enough for me.
