no need to lighten up on yours. mine has 325,000 miles on it and i still down shift to 3rd at 70mph and run the tac out to the limiter and take it all the way to 119mph, when the governor kicks in. check my youtube video out of my topend run.

does your speed governor kick in at 110mph? your car runs nice. i wish there was someone in south florida with a modded yaris that i could meet on the highway, to give them a run for their money.

nope had it up to 115 before but not on video... would have taken it up to that or higher but was too busy watching the road to know what speed i was at...
