He is referring to VSS as the speed limiter.

I was still in 4th gear when I let off of my 1 time hell run, and it never saw redline.
So I have no doubt it will get damn close. But that was with an upgraded turbo and the like so power wasn't an issue if it would be on a stock one.

I can personally vouch that a 1g dsm FWD can and will hit 140. I did it in one of my stupider moments, and the whole damn car vibrated so much i thought i was gonna lose a wheel. Be very careful. With the way things break on DSMs do u really want to chance it happing at 100+ mph?
