I wonder how it got stuck at 100 mph. It must be the moosing or throttle hang. Yeah, that's the reason  .
(One of few moosing cases for the Zetec).

130, yea right, must have heavy mods. its hard to get over 140 in a csvt. must have took you a very long time. i had a probe se. 110 was all with all bolt ons.  because of the limiter, so i think 120 was the most

It's very possible, just takes a long long time. Anyways comparing to other cars is stupid. I have a basically stock escort that will top it's 120mph speedo out pretty easily, but that doesn't have anything to do with a contour.

I doubt it. Mustang GTs of the late 80s were good for only about 135mph.
And the CSVT is good for 143mph - drag limited.
Like the other guy said - must be heavily modded.
Only 10mph difference in drag limited top ends with around 70hp difference?
