Does the speed limiter exist in 2.7T w/ sport package?
After reading my new (2002) 2.7T's manual, I recalled a statement saying that basically "if the car is equipped with such and such tires, the speed is limited to 130 MPH" (that would be H-rated, if I recall correctly). Since my sport package came with Y-rated SP9090s, is there a chance that the 130 MPH limiter is not there?
I may have to try to get some empirical data to confirm/deny this after the car is well broken-in...

no fuel cut off
it has a soft speed limiter. the car reaches speed limiter speed and maintains it.
hard speed limiters have fuel cut offs which make car seem like it died for a few seconds.
