Top Speed On The 04 Zx3 - ZX3Blake - 06-14-2005
does anyone know the top speed on the stock focus, i was wondering. my friend said it was around 175km/h, is this true and can u get rid of the limiter with a new chip?

Yes a chip will get rid of the limiter. But why do you want to go that fast? Even with the speed limiter removed your not going to be outrunning anybody in a focus :P

yes i am aware of this, it was just a thought

The fastest I was able to push it was 182 KM/hr, then the governer kicked in.

A chip will push you into the low 200's.

i thought i heard somewhere that it is limited to 178km/h because the tires are not rated to go any faster :o

My 05 topped at 178 then damn govener. Could still tell there was still some go left too.

I went to about 230 recently but my speedo doesn't get that far.. im just guessing from where the needle was and how i was still pulling after ;) til i ran out of gears
never reached more than 209 i think when i had chip and exhaust..
of course these were just a dream, never really happened
