SVT has no speed limiter and has an official top speed of 143. There are pics floating around with an indicated > 143 but those have either larger tires or increased rev limiter.

my mystique goes strong to 112, then just stops due to the limiter. I would like to find the answer to this as well.

Or just speedos that aren't that accurate...

SCHP radar verified 154 with some mods, including a full body undertray, which probably helped more than anything else...less drag=higher speed.

Where did you get a full underbody tray from???

I'm also curious - I'd been considering attempting one from sheet aluminum. Mostly I want to find some kind of reference on proper design, I wouldn't want to end up with extra lift.
Do you have pictures?

This is NOT my picture, but I kept it and I like it! Please note speedos are not accurate way up there. This is probably an actual 140ish.  Kerry
