Some posts on the yahoo site concluded that the SVX speedo generally over reads by 5mph. This seems reasonable to me: We passed a speed indicator sign last month (when we went to the Midlands SVX meet) and it said 33 while the speedo said 38.

Although, our speedo readings may differ from others because I took it apart when I removed the 180km/h limiter.

We've had the car to 135 (indicated) and there seemed to be plenty left. I wouldn't be surprised if the SVX could crack 150mph.

P&B.
