yeah, about 120+. I was chase truck for our sportbike group, and I was still in break in. We hit a desolate wide open stretch of road after some twisties, and the bikes were GONE. Couldn't get them on the radio, the chatterbox's got too much wind noise, and it took about 20 mins of that speed to catch them. Talk about sucking down some gas!!!

Considering all Titans are limited by the ECU to 115mph.....because of
tire ratings...I would say you all have some speedo innaccuracy or
optimistic eyes. The reason we have to dyno in 3rd gear is in 4th
the limiter hits at 115mph and you cant get to dyno to
redline.

You know, I had the gps, but it was only in tracking mode, not speed mode.
I'll have to give it another try. Yes, I've been to 125 indicated on mine. Maybe my speedo needle is off compared to the pulse on the rear gears?
I'm not doubting a limiter, but I've seen that much on dial in rural NV.
I'll have to take a run out there again and check it against the gps.

We dyno in 3rd gear because its a 1:0/1 gear ratio also! Depending on elevation, out side temp, etc governors will cut off at different speeds. Most are rpm or rpm/gear related. If you are producing more hp at a lower rpm you will go faster. So 10 mph over the governor limit is only ~8% difference and within the margin of error. My 94 Jetta did a 130mph (young and dumb) while driving through Cali (below sea level or right at it) and only 120mph (govd at 120) in TX where I lived.

Sorry but power at a lower speed has NOTHING to do with the ECU
limiting speed. I have seen a dyno in 4th that abruptly stopped
at 115. You could fool it with larger tires (taller) but the fun
is stopped at 115 MPH on our trucks, You may think your going
faster and the speedo may be off a few mph but when the ECU reads 115
thats when the fun stops. I believe this is because our tires are
S rated...114mph max sustained speed. I'm not sure but isn't 4th closer
to a 1:1 than 3rd? I remember a few guys on TitanTalk saying 4th
would be the betterl gear if not for the 115mph limiter.
