Rev limiter. Do yourself a favor don't hit it too much. The only restriction the 2.2 has that I know of is we shut off end of 4th gear.

i'm guessing this is a joke, and he's trying to get some good reactions in a bad attempt to spread it around the internet. pretty sad. if it's a legit question, then please step out of the car, take your keys, and throw them in the nearest sewer. i'll email you a bus schedule.

I've seen NA hit 140 before. Hell I've been in one. Scary ****.

But we did 140 in a turboed car I was like Already at 140? Hell my MX6 hit 140 before I let off. Scary **** on a stock suspension and tire setup.
