Has anyone tried to find the top speed limit on a new HEMI Ram. Had mine up to 105 mph today on the way to church. Truck started moving around a little, very windy, and the wife was getting nervous, so I backed out of it.

At least I know it's higher than My 01 dakota was. 97 MPH

 

I suppose the Church Lady would have a kitten if she only knew. I believe not much over 105 is about the limit without making some kind of modification.

 

Yeah. I'm thinking it would be matched to the stock tires. I think the stock 20's are "H" rated, which would mean 118 MPH.

 

in my 04 hemi, my top speed is also 105. i have heard of some having slightly higher top speeds...

 

I think it is eprom-limited, just discard the speed limiter in the eprom and it should be able to go around 125 mph or also something more (a good tuner could do the job easily).

 

The cutout out is 110 mph it starts acting up at 105...just my little input........

 

I didn't have any indictation at 105 that it was being limited. I'll have to call the service department and see if they know.

I may try to find a tuner shop and see if they can do away with the limiter. It's not like I'll ever drive it that fast, but I like to know I can if I want/need to.

 

My local dealer said that the Hemi with the factory tires and 20" wheels will run 120 at 2000 rpm... I dont know if he knew what he was talking about cuz thats pretty fast...

 

I'm pretty sure he doesn't (know what he's talking about). In high gear, my 5-speed HEMI Ram w/20" wheels turns ~2,100 RPM at 80 MPH. 2,000 RPM at 120 MPH is way off.

I sure hope you hemi people are breaking your trucks in before finding your top speed
