I've had my SHO higher than that, and honestly don't plan on doing it again for a long time haha. Makes you nervous running a 4400lb awd sedan where not many have gone before. Don't know where the weak link is at those speed and I certainly don't want to find out ha.

The SHO definitely pulls pretty good up top. It's not great, but there's a lot of drag. Going past the 140mph speedo does not take long!

That max torque number looks pretty low....did you configure your profile in Torque?

Is your car tuned?

Its easy to get there, but the brakes like to throw a fit if you stand on them at that speed

Mine get pretty loud and you can feel it in the pedal.

I have not experienced any fade however...

I haven't noticed any fade either. If I do a few runs back to back I try to coast a little but I don't like being at the far end of the speedo for to long.
