Top speed 2015 GT no speed limiter?

[Detector]

Just as a guestiment, what do you think the top end speed would be for my 2015 GT with 3.31 manual and SCT Performance tune that removed the limiter?

Thanks

where is your rev limiter set?

Like my old man used to say, go test it out.

My guess is 165 or maybe a tick better, without any serious HP increase I think the aero limitations outweigh the HP gains. Air gets thick at those speeds around sea level.

I would guess whatever 7xxx rpm's in fifth is. Definitely not going anywhere in sixth. 175ish maybe.

No rev limit.

It has long tube headers, exhaust cutouts that dump just after the headers, Airaid CAI and SCT X4 with performance tune.

I've been to 155 and was still in 5th.

DynoJet put me at 402 RWHP before I loaded the SCT X4 Performance tune from AED.

take it to 7500 in fifth and look at your speedo.

come down to heartland park sometime and ill run you in my auto 3.55 gear mustang.

I say 170-175 depending on rev limiter. I have no speed limiter and top speed is where fifth tops out so about 160 mph too bad sixth gear doesn't take you anywhere at that speed so top speed is in fifth.

Not sure about the top speed, but it may end with a court date.

Pretty sure there is a video of someone doing it on youtube on the street. Big discussion about going those speeds are with the stock 2 piece driveshaft and how that could end up in a pretty bad situation if it were to break.

My mods are Track Pack install, and exahaust/instake with 3.31's I personally got up to 171 before i got too scared. Car was pretty stable but was I was scared as poop, 50% fear attributable to being caught, 50% to going 171 lol.

Feel strongly these cars aero are insane (if you fixed hood flutter) and think 180 or maybe a little more is possible.

who tuned the car? if its just the SCT canned tune....its probably still gonna hit the 186 (300km/h) limiter.

Custom performance tune by AED (Advanced Engine Development). It says no limiter when I look at the X4 data log.
