help with speed

It's a dumb idea but:
Auto tc's run out of gearing at 147 or something like that. so HKS sld, some upgrades to the motor (i/h/e/p) and... yea thats pretty much it.
With that you should be able to hit 140, it's just going to take A VERY LONG TIME. F/I will get you there faster.
However, manual tc's, no chance with the stock tranny/rev limiter.
And again, go this fats and you WILL wrap yourself around a pole. A stock suspension/aerodynamics tc gets really unstable at 100+. It's really scary. The back end starts to lift and sway from side to side.

^ Not really? Before I had my TRD springs and sway bar I would go 100+ (dumb yes but were all guilty) and I was fine. Felt smooth as a babys bottom.

GL getting to 140. cutoff is 127.
and the whole NA I/H/E/P isnt anything great, only sound IMO, to make it "fast" go FI
or jus swap a nice H22 VTEC in YO SH*T and really haul sum a$s then u can beat them hondas and rockZ a VTEC YO!
aY HaZ VeTaCH!

Mods needed for this: None.
Unlock car, get in car, put key in ignition, turn key clockwise 2 clicks to ON position, watch needle sweep through speedometer, turn key counterclockwise to OFF position, take out key, walk away shaking your head knowing your reaching 140 MPH dreams have been shattered.
Seeing the speedometer reach 140 MPH on the diagnostic sweep: Just a turn of the key.
Finding out that your chances of actually driving the tC and doing that are none: Priceless.

^ i cant believe you asked that of course it does!
then you add vtec stickers on the sides and shocker by the muffler tip and you'll easily be around 400whp...

Dynos don't lie.
Seriously I need to buy one of those, put it on, prove that it doesn't work and put it on youtube.
Instant hero. And street cred is where it's at.

Yeah because I was going to say, the draw on the alternator would far outweight any potential benefit, I think its like 10-20% of your engines HP to gain like 5hp lol. Figured posting that they made some break through and it can run on an Energizer 9v and last the lifetime of the car
BTW - VTech stickers aren't what give you hp , Type-R badges do! Also, back when I started to drive, I was at a mall in jersey(Garden State Plaza) there was a late 80's, early 90's mustang with a Honda badge on the trunk
