Question Top Speed Limited to 100MPH

I was just driving down the interstate today and had a chance to punch my Chrysler T&C 3.3L and the car pulled just fine in third gear upto 90miles per hour and then as soon as it shifted into the 4th gear the speed kind of seemed to stop at 100miles per hour. I held the pedal down for a few seconds but didnt see the speed increase. Does this mean that the speed is electronically limited to 100MPH or the 3.3L can only do a 100MPH?

Re: Top Speed Limited to 100MPH

Isn't the highway speed limit in the US is about 65-75 MPH?

You never know. Cops are sneaky. There their even if you don't see them. One time, when I went pass a stop sign, I got ticked $74. Too bad.

Re: Top Speed Limited to 100MPH

Being sneaky is part of a cops job and I agree you never know when they might pop up but I have avery good rader detecter system so I know whenever there is a cop around But to be honest I rarely and I mean rarely drive fast like this I mostly drive at 70mph I just felt like finding out how fast is the car thats all. Not like I drive around at 100mph all the time I do not want to kill myself

Re: Top Speed Limited to 100MPH

You are in a 3.3L mini-van....how fast do you think it should go?!?!

150MPH? Doubtful..mini-vans are massively underpowered...probably is limited to 100MPH as it wouldnt be able to safely go much faster!

Sheesh!

Re: Top Speed Limited to 100MPH

I was not expecting it to be any faster but just wanted to know that is the speed limited by the engine's computer or the car just cannot go above 100mph because of not having enough power

Re: Top Speed Limited to 100MPH
