Thumbs up Pretty happy...

There is this section of road that I like to do some testing on. My '99 V10 (pre diablo chip) would hit approx. 120 km/hr, after the chip would hit 130 km/hr. My '04 6.0 hit 140 km/hr without putting the pedal right to the floor. Very impressed!!

And in english that is how fast ?!?!?!

if I remember from when I was in Iran KMH * .6 was roughly the mph...
so 140*.6 = 84 mph ???
You're not even hitting the speed limiter there !
Some have hit 130 MPH !

This was, for you Americans , probably in less than a 1/4 mile stretch. I'll measure out the distance next time I'm on that stretch!
