your car comes with 2.73 gears and is electronically limited to 136 mph, wich you can do in 4th gear. your car doesnt have enough power to reach it's mechanical top speed ungoverned in less than an hour, and quite frankly on a stock 97 GT i wouldnt want to.

My friend with 3.73s says he tops at about 135 so what are top speeds with other guys if you know, no guessing please.

Hmm... My GT was stock. I put everything in it. Before i put the chip in i maxed out my speedo at 150. Had a little more to push but i shut it down. After my chip i did it again on the way home.

the only stangs I know for certain that had governers were those with 16" rims, like v6's - I dont know of any GT's that have limiters but theier could be ?
