120 with stage 1, 120 with stage 3

I've had it pinned a few times.........no problems at all. 120 just comes a lot quicker now then it did before.

What do you mean by "top end"? I have been over 115 on my bone stock 08 RG and sure I can go alot faster given a long enough piece of road. you need to wind it up in the lower gears to get it up there. If you try to put it in 6th at 65 and get it up there, might not happen. If on the other hand you take it out past 100 in 4th and 115 or higher in 5th, then you can probably get some push from 6th...

top end - how fast will it go, you got right. I picked up my 08 UC in Sept. and they put a SERT on(a different dealer than where I bought it from by the way) in 15 minutes but it wouldn't go over 90. I heard someway say that maybe they didn't have a map model...I took it to my regular dealer which didn't have any SERTS and they 'tweaked' it, that's there word now it will do 100 but struggling. I guess the bottom-line is should I have it dynoed

by the way that was 90 in 6th going from near a red line from 5th to it's top end in 6th. I also have an 07 SG to compare it with and the SG will do 110 easy and then some, so what the hey

Red line in 5th should be in the 120 range...

I knew there was a problem, it runs good until I get up to around 90, now at least it will do 100. I have to get it dyno'd I guess.

I stpooed when I pegged out at 120, I was afraid to go faster as the front end had a little shake..... being my own favorite person, I slowed down
