Default all smiles 1000 miles

just got proven to myself why i traded in the tuned v6 for a stock gt. took it real easy for the first 500 milkes, then for the 2nd 500 starting to open ger up. what is the speed limiter set on the gts. it was 113 on the v6 b/c of driveshaft and tire rating but opened it up on the interstate coming home to about 120 still pulling strong. once i get the tunes and intake for it i know i will be one big smile.

Congrats on the upgrade! The smiles will continue. If they last more than 4 hours - see you doctor.
