Wow, thanks to all who responded so quickly! Oh wait....nobody responded.....is it because nobody cares or nobody knows?

Well I found out and for your information it's 121 mph! Really sucks to get blown away by a 2.5 Nissan whose governor kicks in at 145!

Got mine to 130 once, but that was a little downhill, every other time it cuts out at about 124mph

The S type is a bit different. I think they are set at 135. The X is 121. As of now, there still is nothing out to remove the speed limiter. The The S type has more performance options for removing and updating the ECM, Vers the X type which cost a small fortune and still doesn't remove the limiter...

I heard that there was a tune up program for the diesel X Types that disables the speed limiter and give extra 20 HP .Approximately one hour ago, I talked to one of mechanics who prepares racing engines for the teams and official Mossellman dealer told me thathe will get a new PCM program which will be available for Jaguars and other leading car makers in two months .

My jag when around a buck 30 as 04 stated but it cut off after that....it did get up there quite effortless and had some more but oh well....don't need to go that fast anyways!

When you guys double post does the screen freeze and than you re-type what you typed??? That is my guess because mine takes forever and I just refresh the screen and paste what I typed if the screen freezes....

Well, last night I ended up going to go watch 28 weeks later...really good by the way...so I didn't go to Towers nor Okeechobee to the races so I couldn't test the top speed. I'll try and do so next weekend!
