P5's(which is the subject of the original question) have a stiffer suspension than your ES, they suspension sits lower, the front bumper sits lower(reduces lift),side skirts(reduces lift), and they have a functional rear wing(downforce),plus I,m pretty sure they carry a wider tire stock(grip). I have every confidence they are quite stable at 120+mph, albeit probably not much higher.

 

My MSP has topped out the speedo before past 140mph....I don't know how accurate our speedo's are though. I know my P5 will sit on 130mph but it takes a LOT longer to get it there than the msp's 5psi.

Wanna see something neat? Wait until I get my supercharger on my p5 and then I'll get a video of it pushing 140mph for you.

 

hehe, yeah, I have no doubt that it'll go past 140, in-fact, I never doubted it would, hell with re-gearing, and a new ECU, even mine could... Mine accelerates rather smoothly to 115 mph until the engine shuts off...

Just be careful, I still doubt how much past 130 the car will handle safely.

 

Hell, I broke 122 mph on the dyno today with my P5. Were thinking of running it in 5th just to see if it has enough *** to go past the 140 mph reading on the speedometer.

 

there's no wind resistance on a dyno

 

hahaha

 

That was ment to be in response for the ones saying that the 5 speed P5 is governed to 117 mph. I know that there is no wind resistence on the dyno. I might still be learning about Proteges, but I'm not a complete `tard.

 

Im bring this thread back. Ive read through the whole thing, i see no major doubts (like I got) of top speeds over 117mph. Prime weve seen the install lets see the video.

 

Oh christ, can we please keep this to one thread ?

 

lol, agreed.

videos of all supercharger stuff will be put in one of the 35 different supercharger threads we have!
