yeah, acceleration suck on the car, so i was hoping for a decent top speed, but i didnt get that either
Make your acceleration faster, that way you can get to the top speed faster (thumb)

there must be a speed limiter in the 1.6L at 113...Goldpro has MORe than enough power to go beyond 113 and he says it hits a brick wall at that speed

not a limter, i think its just the gears.. u run out of gears at that speed, prolly, what rpm does it kill at? and also , do the ford trick, put on the hazards, u get an extra 15mph our of it..

Nope, if anything you are running at a lower RPM at that speed than 2.0L guys...F series is geared longer than the G-series

This weekend going to tampa I got it up to 115-116MPH, my new top speed. the fastest I had taken it to before was 110 cause I ran out of road.
that doesn't mean that I do it all the time (stooges) just whenever possible (upyours)
