So I guess they missed mine unless there is an explanation for this creepy stuff. Mind you, my car had about 1,500 pounds of my possesions in my car when doing this too. Therefor making the car work even more.

Okay, you haven't said so yet, but I'm guessing that you have a '94 or later SVX.
Anyway, if you're seeing higher top speeds than the limiter is supposed to allow, I would guess one of two things:
1. Your ECU isn't the one that came with the car.
2. Your speedometer is overestimating by the suggested 10% and you're not really going as fast as the car says you are.
3. We're wrong about the speed limiting.
Again, I have only tested the speedometer's accuracy up to about 110mph. It is possible that it overestimates - intentionally or not - at higher speeds.
