Hmmm, I forgot to mention that after the test my ABS light came on, and for 10 minutes I had no ABS (I tested by sliding in the snow). Thought I would need a dealer look, but it went away!

if there was more torque, the si would be able to pull thru 6th.

I can only hit 124 redlining in 5th , then nothing in 6th and I was flooring it. Sucks because I was beating my friends BMW until top speed.

Thank God I'm 06.
Over-rev sucks. As much as I hate to admit it, this happened to me. I was redlined in 4th on the interstate and mis-shifted into 3rd instead of 5th. I got the clutch back in pretty quick, but it still major over-revved. Its been a couple months, no bad effects, thus increasing my faith in Honda and increasing my humility that anyone can accidentally do a stupid thing. In Celicas if this happens, bye-bye lift bolts and more!! This used to come up once in a while on the Celica boards.

hmm, im pretty sure its not 2007 that made the top speed 133mph. I am only able to hit 133 when getting to about 8200rpms. Then 6th is like hitting those brakes. My car is 2006, but i did hear half way through 06 they changed some settings. not sure.

I watched that video on streetfire of the top speed of 06 SI and it was hella slow in 6th. Past and it didnt even kick in.

that guy driving your car is an idiot. He should not be allowed to touch another car....EVER! I could see once, ok he f'ed up. But twice in a row!!!! what a f'tard. I'm going to call BS on the 161 mph also, unless you had it on jackstands.

The valve train in a K20A2 was built to handle 9K rpms stock, and the limiter was set to 82-8300 rpms. So I'll bet the K20Z3 is the same way. The hondata reflash for the K20A2 pushed the limiter up to 85-8600 rpms. Does anyone know what the reflash for the K20Z3 pushed it up to? Where does it have VTEC kicking in? 52-5300?

LMAO....jackstands @ 161 mph...I'd pay to see that



Hondata flash lowers VTEC engagement to 4500 and rev limit to 8600

Yup, gotta love having a Honda!

As for 161 mph, do what I did and take a video, it's the only way people here will believe you!
