In canada it seems like we have a governor at 215 km/r cause i haven't gotten past that. So i think that is like 127 mph

the si will go to whatever. After around 130ish give or take, uphill, downhill, wind, you'll have to shift into 6th and then it will drop just out of vtec so it will take a while to get up there. i was able to hit 134 at the end of 5th on a flat surface by myself.

I got mine to 127-128 but ran out of room. I'm almost positive the SI will go as fast as it can til rev limit in 6th. If you can get enough room. I think its pretty nice for a 4cyl stock, but I did come from a v8 prior to this....

Popped VTEC off the showroom floor...

I've been to 135mph/217kmh easy before I was supercharged, but when shifting to 6th, with the wind, and being at 5500ft of altitude, there was just not enough power to push 6th gear any faster.

Got it on video too
