We've said it time and time again, but apparently nobody reads the posts.

My contribution was that my buddy ran his up to 148 on a completely stock 96 GT, although it took him AGES to get there. Governed? Maybe at 150, but 148 was possible.

the factory lists the 96-98 GT governer at 136 mph for 16 inch wheel cars. cars equipped with 17 inch wheels were ungoverend if i remember correctly.
