So I watched a video a member posted and noticed that on a 2014 Fusion the speedo reads up to 160 but on a SHO it only reads up to 140. Now the gages look exactly the same so did ford get these two backwards? They need to pay more attention. LOL.

I believe the speed on the SHO is limited to 140... One advantage of a tune is eliminating that ECM function.

I get that the speed is limited on the SHO but is that saying the Fusion is faster and not limited? With the tune (Just limiter removed) the SHO will pass 150, I don't think the fusion would pass 130 with a tune. Either way just something I noticed and got a kick out of it.

Me2... I suspect it is a cost effectiveness move by Ford.
