Double check the tune. Sometimes my truck wont hold what the SC programmed on it so when I go back and check its still at stock maybe this is what happened. And Jeezus **** 235 bro that's gotta take some ***** I'm pretty apprehensive about going over 150km/h. Dads M5 though 250km/h feels like a cruise.

i have alot of power at 95-110 mph and only diff is the ram air , dont think that would be that much of a difference.

It starts to vibrate pretty good about 180ish ad the goes away about 190 and its about the smoothest my truck ever rides lol.

I don't do it often but I wanted to get a pic of it with the radar gun on it for fun. I try to keep it as safe as possible but I now if I get carried away it is only a matter of time until something happens.
