ALL CARS IN THE US AFTER 1990 HAVE A CHIP IN THE COMPUTER THAT STALLS THE ENGINE IF IT GOES ABOVE 100MPH. TAKE SAID CHIP OUT AND FIND AN OLD ABANDONED AIRPORT, AND FIND OUT JUST WHAT THEY ARE YOUR SELF( I DON'T TRUST BOOKS!!)

icabear2 answer is incorrect. Acura's do not have the chip limiting the top speed. The Integra would do about 140 to 150, since its only an LS, but does have intake, headers, and exhaust. The Solara does have a speed governor that would limit top speed to something around 110.

The only way to know for sure is to drive them to their top end...and that would be risky. First, as mentioned, it's not easy to find a place to safely and easily do this. Second, the cars' tires might not be rated for the kinds of speeds that you might achieve.I know for certain that street sedans have limiters that are calibrated for speeds well upwards of 120 mph, some closer even to 140. It is not safe to drive that fast except on a race track & only then after the car has been checked out for safety, and with the driver wearing the appropriate safety gear.
