idk if my neon's previous owner modified the ecu at all or anything like that because he did change alot of stuff but i know i have had my sohc atx neon over 135-140. i had a friend behind me in his eclipse v6 w mods and i was pulling away from him. he told me that wen i let off ( people in my car were complaining) he was doing 135 so that all i know. again i dnt know how accurate his spedo is either
Taking a neon over 100 is suicidle. Unless youve done the prober tire, suspension and brake upgrades your insane and i hope none of you ever consider doing so.

i have had my sohc atx neon over 135-140.
Speedo was way off then...the neon tops out due to aerodynamic drag at about 130 mph anyway.

Remove the Trunk Fin and get in a good draft - and you will easily top over 130MPH.
