I was wondering what a B16a's top speed is. Anyone know?

SiKid86

had my car up to like 138-140

if you want to get past 115 (which i wouldnt recommend anyway) you have to get a ECU chip to remove your governor

9600RPM maybe?

Or did you mean a car with a B16A in it?
If that's the case, then there are kind of a lot of variables.

I can go past 115 in my car and havn't touched the ecu..

yeah...JDM ECUs are governed @ 115 I think.
If you're running an "untouched" JDM ecu and still going past 115 then:

1.) It really isn't the JDM ecu?
2.) It was chipped? Because you know all those dudes in Japan chip their shiet, anyway.

i have known at least 2 people whose JDM B16's were governed at 115 also.

01SSAP1

I have had mine doing 140

EM1's are not speed governed

Anything else is I think to about 120

A guy in town Swapped a JDM B16A into his CDN SI (US EX) it tops out at 190 KM (118 MPH)

Twice I have my Speedometer wrapped all the way round to 230 Km/h (approx 140 mph)

That's a Big 10-4. I've had my Si up to 126.

I guess all the roads I have are too hilly. Refer to what I said above your quote, thats the top I've ever had it up to.

This was with a stock p30.

If I maxed out 4th I could get the speedo needle to go to about 7 o'clock. I dunno how fast that is because the last line was at the 190kmh mark. Wich would be about 5 o'clock.

If I didn't redline fourth and shifted to 5th say at 5krpm's the car would cut out at 180kmh'ish.

I think the limiter can be bypassed in 4th because you can go faster than 180kmh at redline.

Here is a photo. For your entertainment. Top of 4th going 190ish.

Hilly would be good. Both times I have hit 140 has been on slight downhill grades.

Nothing super steep that would really help the car but nothing with a flat or a uphill grade which would impede it.

See above comment. My D16Y8 can do 130. no0bs *shakes head in disgust*

B16Drag

fastest I've gone in a b16 sol - 135mph on I5 (with no one around in the middle of nowhere, SO F OFF!)

01SSAP1

I personally was just testing my car's limits. I do that with every car I have owned.

I have to say it is a bit hairy doing 140 MPH in a Civic.

I did it once before I installed my springs and once after. I have to say after installing it was more confidence inspiring.

Doostur

I think 125-135 Tops

Oh dear lord. Please end yourself now.

Just relating the experience I have had.

I have talked to guys who own Lesser model civics (a EX and SE) and they told me they cut out at 190 KM/H

Sorry for being so noob.....

By the way that 140 is MPH

Ignitecivic

i hit 130 with my mini me with dx tranny. car is smooth and stable. it dont feel that fast, but i be passing cars quick though.

JDM Like Whoa

I was with a friend and we got his Si up to high 140's low 150's ( we were folling a car that had a speedo that went that high)
