It will do it. Mine did.

P.S. If the kid still has the car in his possesion and still has a drivers license then you can almost put your life on it that he is lying.

I've went over 145+ easily in a stock 4 banger eclipse so it should be no problem. He is still probaly full of it though as he'd be telling you from a jail cell.

Defenitely not without having the speedlimiter removed

That eclipse wasn't stock, I've heard stories of stock 5.0s runnin 150+...

I don't see how you could run 140+ in a stock eclipse seeing as how the speed limiter is set at 135? My turbo eclipse hits 135 and shuts down.

i agree

ive had mine to 140 in 4th gear so im sure this kids mustang would do 140, im just kind of skeptical about beaing pulled over doing 140

im with you there..if you get pulled over at 140 first your stupid for slowing down..i mean please if you stop you really think the cop is going to let you go cuse you had the respect enough to stop for him? LMAO umm yer going to jail because anything over 100mph is a felony from what i understand...so i spell poop...the car will do it no doubt..but it could need a ecu flash depending on the model i dono what the limits are i know people talk about 147 being a limit to somthing like either an o4 gt or an o4 mach1...but i hear diffrent things from diffrent people..in any case theres another factor and that is being over looked here, that over a certin speed cops WONT chase after you its a public safety thing at least thats what im told about ny.. that over like 150 or somthing like that they wont chase after you because 1 their cars wont keep up that fast and 2 it turns into a public issue of saftey being more then one car is traveling at that rate of speed poses twice the danger regardless if the cop is trained in highspeed persut or not. Again in a case like this being the speed is 45 i think the guy said i would deffinatly call bs...because if its 45 there is a reason...maybe alot of bends and turns...i mean i would beleve the guy was going that fast if he said it was on the highway...but in a 45...doubt it...on a road with that speed limit posted chances are theres a couple nice nasty turns and at 140 you are more then likely going to find yourself real up close and personal with a tree or three.
