    First off I bought the car sunday picked it up tuesday, took it to my mechanic who actually owns a performance shop here in town he looked over said everything was in tip top shape so i decided to go off today to the back roads and see how everything faired..... i should have brought a towel to clean up the mess i made on the seat.. haha.. anywho so im flying around takin some turns..handles like a dream.. everything is fine there and i hit about a 5 miles straight away.. so i said alright ima top it out.. I floor it and it climbs.. and climbs ( fairly quick, yall know how it is :P ) and im coming up to 100+ so i was thinkg alright its gonna pop at 110 cool.. at least thats what i expected... next thing you know im looking at the hud display on my windshield..... 127mph.. quick glance down the needle is burried .so i start to slow thinking what the hell thats fricken AWESOME!!!

    before this car was mine it was some ladies.. i checked the pulley no scratches or any signs of any mods?
    So im here scratching my ehad wondering if my car had a limiter to begin with and if so.. wth happen to it?

    now im not complaining but just curious

    any ideas?!

    Different limiters for different trims. Might help if you posted what year and trim level you have.
