What is your ACTUALL Top speed in a 8th gen si. I was told 140 is where it maxes out at but i could only hit 127. CAI and Race Header, Topped out in 5th, Shift to 6 and it just stays at that speed. Doesn't go up, or at least in a 1/2 mile.

Top speed means nothing.....They obviously, just as diesel trucks, are de-tuned from the factory, seeing as how you can bring so much horse out with reflashing, and I'm about 90% sure I read on the ocho that there is not vtec in 6th gear.
My EM1 did 139 with i/h/e/lightweight fly, but my FG2 has ~40 more hp.
wow 157 aint to bad too bad the stock tires might blow on that kind of speed
Blow the engine up, thats what.
they wont. the stock tires are:
Michelin Pilot Exalto PE2
(Ultra High Performance Summer) and
Michelin Pilot HX MXM4
(Grand Touring All-Season)
and heres the tire ratings

they can handle atleast 149mph but the w means they can andle 168mph.

its not the need, its the want. but yeah when i went 124 i did it on a bridge with basically noone on it
J, if you look at the video posted above, they got the ex to 137 i think it was.
EDIT: they said 145 but not sure if it was a pre production thing.
