LS/LT I know is like somewhere after 110. Like around 112-115. I've done it myself before.

I'm not sure about the other models, but the ss/sc is not governed and will got to at least 145-150mph. I've had mine to about 135.

the 2.2 is set to either 105, or 120 if you have the sports package with upgraded tire set. i've been right up around 115, and a little higher, didn't hit the governor though

Umm... It is governed at 158mph and you have to use the HPT to unlock that gov if you plan on going upto speeds higher than 158mph.
