only some of the overseas and canadain cars have the speed limiter.

all us models usually are power/ drag limited to about 130 ISH (not positive of exact number as it varies and the speedo is not even certified which means it could be slightly inaccurate at speeds that high.)

i think they say ex's are heavier, hence the power increase is not sufficient to pull the increased weight over the lx....that's for the 94....not sure what it is for the 90

my 91 lx topped out at approximately 122 and a buddy of mine in a 93 lx did the same. we both had exhaust and intake at the time...if that helps out any
