Something worth the extra $100. Way more options then my BDX. I only have line pressure and no rail pressure or trans temp.

Can you not load you own PIDs into your BDX?

If you can I have no idea how. I haven’t really put in much effort yet in finding out though either. There is a list of different items you can choose to display but outside of that I haven’t figured out how or if you even can load other things into it.

Also, how all nine of yours show min and max, I can only get that for two at a time with a max of six.

If you want to get a reading above maybe use a satellite gps type app. The standalone nav stuff had those for a long time and I'm sure you can get one on a phone or a vehicle based device with gps connectivity.

They have some pretty good apps on phone too, i had a good one before i just dont remember what it was called. It woulda always track your 0-60 and show you your best for the day and 1/4 and 1/2 mile times. Even if you floor it or not. Kinda nice for simple data log for speed and times

2013 PP 135+ and still getting it, just not quite enough to stay with a modified charger heading into Memphis.

My 13 PP topped completely out at 157 mph. That was GPS verified.

Top speed in theory is over 200mph with gearing but around 160 with stock tune and aerodynamics and weight on a flat surface on this flat earth

Lowered car would be faster. More downforce and find a way to reduce drag. Air under the car will be faster then the air above the car. Would be even faster....eventually. Aerodynamics is my job, 10 years strong. Cars are alot different than planes though

Those specs are for PP. non pp will be faster as the final drive is a lower ratio number.

Speed limiters are often related the speed rating of the tires that came on the vehicle from the factory.

Yep. Mine is lowered, and it ran right at 160...(157). Couple of things. This was pre-full exhaust, and this was on a my mild E30 tune, stock rims, and my sun roof was open. It was done a whim on a very speedy return trip from CA to PHX. I could not get the car to get max out sixth gear rpm.

Now, I may revisit this. I have a PID in my Livewire that shows vehicle speed past 140, and I can use my GPS again.

Since then, I have MSD coils, full exhaust (PPE DP's, custom Resonator, stock mufflers), lighter rims, and a max effort E30 tune. Bet I can get her a bit higher in the 6th gear rpms now.

Open downpipes as turbos like no restriction. Intercooler is probably restrictive at high rpm as any air to air intercooler is, why racing uses water to air intercoolers. Fuel and spark. Lots needs done to see faster mph, but the tranny can do it. That spec sheet is accurate as it says 130ish for my miata with 4.30rear and 5speed and thats what it does ******* out 5th
