- This is a wide open throttle (WOT) of a 2006 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interpector P71. The only modification I have done is a Jmod to the transmission, otherwise it's bone stock. I was expecting a little more considering the other top speed videos of this car, but now I know its limitations and potential.
I just bought my first car 3 weeks ago and it's a 1999 Mercury Grand Marquis with 52,500 miles on it. I'm not 81, I'm 18 and I love the car.
Noah Stakes nice man just got mine last year 1999 crown vic Lx she runs so good

@@beereadyyy9849 Thanks Man
Man..so smooth at that speed..no wonder cops liked to cruise at that speed chasing criminals
Cesar Palmos I noticed that too man, that is a damn smooth 130 mph.
A lot of cops I've talked to miss this car and how well it drove at speed. Hard on ball joints and handled like boats but other than that, they were great cars that will run forever.
I've done 125 in mine. This is why I'm keeping it until I die. Nothing else like it any more. Size, speed and power.
if they keep making aftermarket parts for it that long lol
Yes true. I am 55 though, so it may just outlast me a couple years!
that came out darker than I meant it to be XD
@@greenbareet it's all good, I'm having a great time driving mine. If you have the space and money I highly recommend it. Mustang speed in a car big enough to carry a family. Last of the best.
@@lawrencemelanson7041 I actually own one too, and im 22 lol. alot of people talk crap about it but they just dont give it a chance. mine is straight piped and sounds like a muscle car. considering it has a mustang engine in it practically makes it a muscle car. the only downside is the threads on the plugs. sooo tiny
for a boat on wheels, that's damn impressive
I bet all the HP officers had a great time crusing at 130mph chasing criminals lol
The Vic is big but not a boat it doesn’t corner like one anyway it’s very nimble for a 4k lbs sedan
@@StockTurboN20 well, they did have the suspension tuned for a mix of comfort and relative performance. It's not fast by any means, but it's really good.
Rydog5392 not very fast stock no but has plenty power for some what I do with mine and my e46 they both love corners
@@rydoggo I would consider it faster than your average car. Most cars stop between 110 and 125
I've had my 05 pinned past 140, screaming but still climbing so I slowed down maybe some have a governor.
I have a CVPI. These are monsters
They are alright, I mean a charger pursuit with a 5.7 puts the vic to bed if all we are talking about is the raw power , acceleration and top speed. Not denying how wonderful the vic is aside from that.
James Edge The Vic would always out last a Charger
James Edge I’m sorry the Fiat Charger
@@TheRookie-ld3cb I would be a fool to argue with you there!
@@fax565 chargers were fragile though i have a cvpi it runs through walls
well holyshit a deputy I know wasn't shittin me I think these things are governed at 131mph
but 2.73 is a smaller ratio. This gives the 2.73 the highest theoretical top speed.
@@dominickfoster9858 lol, thankyou
@OOM- 8018 correct
@R A engine doesn't care, it's the prop shaft breaks above 140 is what was found to be happening
@OOM- 8018 I'm pretty sure it's a matter of tires: when you advertise a car that can go fast, it needs the tires to go with it.
For example: corvette and camaro has "z" rated tires that support high speed.
So it would have required that the car was equipped with a lot more expensive tires.
Imagine if this thing had the 10 speed transmission in the f-150's and rangers...
Those transmissions have great performance, but they’re still awful, Chinese BS, that falls apart before 100,000 miles. The 4R75W may be slow, but they’re much tougher.
@@ESPLTD322 truth, i read somewhere the stock internals of the 4r70 is good for around 400HP. dont quote me on that though lol
@@ESPLTD322 it's okay to talk about "toughness" but remembering that ATF fluid quality and temperature is paramount to an automatic gearbox, a gearbox with a high number of ratios and a converter that can lock quickly means less heat and less wasted energy. An old auto might seem tough but the lack of ratios mean advancing engine speed ahead of road speed a lot of the time and that is where the fluid will get hot and start to loose it's properties.

10R80*
You forgot Expedition
The J mod is definitely noticeable, nice firm shifts and a drop rpm so quick the overun pully on the alternator sounds like a Turbo!!!!!
🚓💨👍
That's not the alternator it's the torque converter
I cruise regularly at 100-110 and get to 120-125 easily in my 2009 with more left . Very smooth and stable at that speed too .
I have an 09 P71 too. 125 is the fastest I went too
It's like 80 is 55, 95 is 65, and 110 is 95. 125 is the " I'm seriously speeding right now" speed LOL
Great cruise speed of choice! I love triple digit driving
I went 125 with my 09 CVPI the other night what a joy lol had so much more to go
Holy sht thanks 4 the ride! Fly that Ford!!
You're welcome
Done 110 in mine and felt like I was sitting in my couch. Love these cars.
The crown Victoria needed 2 things. 1: regardless of engine, it needed a 5 or 6 speed transmission. For the lack of power of the 4.6, those tall gears kill it.
2: the 4v version of the 4.6 instead of the 2v
The fourth gear can let the car go to 180+ if not for the torque and the governor.
I love that little WOO is makes.
Danny DeVito yes idk why they do that my mom and dand had both had a crown vic and granny has a marquis and mom now has a 2014 mustang 3.7 and all 4 made that sound in 1st gear and some of second
My 2005 P71 maxed at 131mph too but mine got there A LOT faster. I had some small mods done to it though. (Current car is a 2009 P71, haven't really started modding yet)
What mods did you have done to your 2005 P71?
@@krownvikkhris3004 Performance coil packs, performance plugs, high flow intake and shortening the exhaust. Those are my basic mods, doing that stuff will cost you around $100 total and make a HUGE difference. I've now done all the same stuff to 3 different cars and my current one is my 2009.
@@mired914 will the aluminum metal Matrix driveshaft fit in my 2006 p71 without any further modification
@@krownvikkhris3004 I have no idea on that, I've never changed a driveshaft in one before. Biggest thing I've done is change rear ends to put posis in.
@@mired914 oh ok, but did your 05 have that metal matrix driveshaft?
Dam you are cruising at 132 for a while!!! The fastest of the CVPIs I own right now is 128 mph.
Noice!!!!!
I believe the Marquis with Air, is governed at or around 108. I remember giving a P71 a run for its money on the hwy, he just couldn’t keep up. All the traffic thought it was 2 cops responding to something. I was just running!
I do miss owning the fast lane and making folks move. And yea I’ll talk about a crime with expired statute of limitation
Hold on to it Tony , Does it get pretty floaty at that speed ?
It feels very stable and planted onto the ground. Granted, the road I was on was very smooth and recently repaved, but any small imperfections on the road aren't noticeable. Somewhere between 115 and 120 there were two slight bends in the road, though the car handled them with ease. With front and rear sway bars, there was no body roll either.
130 is a cakewalk 4 the p72. I have a 2005 n its no more difficult then driving at 70 mph or any other speed
I've gone 130 on a really bumpy road that tilted, and had bumps and holes in it, and it was still really stable.
Mine at 120 felt like i was doing 60 at 120 there almost a two ton car they stick to the ground like glue mine still had the firestone pursuit 255 50 17 on love those tires
@@davidharvey8691 2 tons and a quarter actually :)
I have the same year mines run the same I stay in the middle of nowhere and I have a long piece of road mines will run 135 on a perfect day with no wind
Have you ever been faster than 135mph in it?
Wish they had the mustangs automatic five speeds from the s197 first gen
That could be a decent swap
Very good Ford crown Victoria
Wow you held that pinned and wide open for quite a while......
I thought I had balls,you got boulders,,, Nice!!!!🚓💨👍
I love holding it wide open throttle at those speeds in my 08! It just feels so swell!
I bought a creme-puff 2001 Mercury Marquis LS with all the options (except handling and performance pkg -damn-it) off a dead guy (his estate actually) for $5000 back in 2010. Had 24K geezer-miles on it. Still nearly perfect. Ignition cuts out ~100 MPH. With 2.73 gearing I can get 27 MPG all day and if you can go slower (I had to once for 500+ miles on a tank, long story) I get ~32+ MPG. This is freeway. That's what these barges are made for! Hauling aunt Ruthie and all her bingo players to Vegas (jk).
My car came with the "drifting barge" pkg.
Have you tuned out the speed governor, and what is the axle ratio of your CVPI? You appear to be hitting either the governor or the speed at which aerodynamic+road drag is equivalent to rear wheel HP. A lower axle ratio (higher numerically) would put you a few hundred RPM higher at the same speed. You have a few more ponies available closer to 5000 RPM. Mine is an X5 axle which is 3.27 LS. The 3.55 is rare, but good to find. It might cost you .2 mpg overall, but accel and top speed will go up ...
But only if you overcome the speed governor it came with. FORprog can be used for tuning out the governor (note that Ford put in that speed governor to protect your driveshaft from failing at speed).
Here is what infogalactic.com encyclopedia says about axle ratios:
The 2006-2011 Police Interceptors are equipped standard with an open 3.27:1 rear axle (Axle code Z5), with a trac loc 3.27:1 rear axle (Axle Code X5) optional, and are electronically limited to 140 mph (225 km/h) due to critical driveline speed limitations (the weight of the vehicle with law-enforcement equipment on-board makes it highly unlikely the vehicle could ever reach this figure). An optional 3.55:1 trac loc rear axle ratio with 120 mph speed limiter was also available (Axle code C6). Pre-2006 Police Interceptors equipped with the 3.27:1 rear axle ratio were generally limited to approximately 128 mph (206 km/h). This compares to the standard non-P71 2.73 rear axle ratio with a speed limitation of 110 mph (177 km/h) for all "civilian" Crown Victorias.[7]
Ford used an aluminum metal matrix composite driveshaft for the 1993-2005 Police Interceptors as a measure to allow safe operation at over 150 mph (241 km/h), but it was more expensive than the regular aluminum driveshafts. Ford CVPIs were governed to 129 miles per hour. Ford reintroduced a 3.55:1 rear axle ratio for the 2006 model year Police Interceptors with a 120 mph (193 km/h) speed limitation to reduce the risk of driveshaft failure. Ford built two different gear ratios for police use. One had the 3.27 gear ratio and was built for highway use, the second option had the 3:55 gear ratio and was built for city use. All CVPIs came standard with a 3.27.1 ratio open differential, however departments could order a 3.55.1 ratio locking differential for better acceleration off the line. Also noteworthy is that all cars came standard with an open differential unless Ford's Trac-Lok Differential was ordered with the car. Trac-Lok was available with the 3.27.1 ratio and came standard with the 3.55.1 ratio.
So with a 3.55 or 3.73 the car would be closer to 5000rpm in overdrive?
It’s so reliable they had to stop making it
What is the Jmod to the transmission and how do you do it?
C:\ DOS the J Mod is a mod done to the transmission allowing for faster and smoother shifts and there is a video on TH-cam on how to do it but I would recommend having it professionally done by someone who is familiar with the J Mod
I keep telling myself I'm gonna get one of these at some point as a fun weekend car, but good examples are starting to get rare.
132 mph is 3.27. 3.55 is 124 IIRC.
I've done 136mph in my 06 with 3.27s so far
2007 p71 through 2011 where 250-270 whp (wheel horse power) 04-2006 was around 230whp 99-02 was 210-225whp years before 99 where below 200whp. Just lettin ya'll know :D
The 06 and newer were 250 because i had a 06 3.55 with track lock gov at 120
I always thought it was limited to save the OD band (4th gear) on the transmissions.
Casey Babb I’m with you because I rode in a pursuit with a friend and even limited to 130 with it kicking in and out of overdrive that night the transmission went out.
People and the od trans yall talk about yall dont know nothing when its time to hit 5th it will its governed at 130 why hit 5th
@@brianeagle7005 these cars don't have a 5th gear so I'd shut up before you sound more like a fool

I thought it was because of the driveshaft
With the “no speed belt” light flashing the whole time. LMAO!!!
Where did you get the straight road
A tune, intake, and exhaust that would maybe hit 140+ I’d think
They are electronically limited to 135 mph due to driveshaft issues. Even the police models
@@davidmuncy7862 not If you have a tuner 😁
@@03SilverMustangGT der. Lol I was saying that because they are capable of higher speeds just with factory specs, just with the limiter removed. it's not done pulling at 135

Does the tuner solve the problem of shaft vibration after removing the limiter?
The cvpi is honestly faster than most civilian cars (stock at least)
Well I’m not exactly sure about that

Thing is these crown Vic’s are very large and heavy
@@Creeperboy099 mine can go 0-60 in 7. I think it also depends on the year.
@@Creeperboy099 but anyways, I was mainly talking about top end.

@@Creeperboy099 I can definitely agree they are pretty slow on take off but not bad for a tank XD.
How come some are limited to 103 131 and some are 150?
So 131 MPH at about 3,800 rpm? Bet your rear end is a 3.27. Nice video. Thumbs up and thanks for sharing.
Yep, probably. State tropper vics usually opted for the 3.27, most of the interceptor vics were 3.55 tho
this is so weird? mine hits 140.? are these cars just normally limited to 130?
bassheadray I must be a whip, when I get to 110-120, I back off the pedal. Lol
It's all about your gear ratio
@@LtSheepDog The P71's are limited to 130, at 4k rpms it could've kept going, but the drivetrain, tires, etc. aren't built to handle any more.
@@Tracert-mc1hu exactly that's why I said it depends on what gears your running lot of people forget the alot of mustang parts are compatible for the vic giving the ability to not be limited
My crown vic heat is always on half is it normal? + The temperature in our country is 40+ degrees Celsius
Is it limited? Pretty sure it would hit 140-150 if derestricted,considering it does constant 130 on 4k rpm,good one though :D
Yes, it's electronically limited to 130 since there are numerous documented events of driveshafts vibrating and/or collapsing at such high speeds after driving that fast for extended periods of time. I'd love to see what this is truly capable of, but I don't want to risk destroying anything.
+Tony Westbrook the 1998 to 05 have metal Matrix drive shaft which are better than the aluminum in the 06 and up I'm currently switching myself

What rear gearing does it have?
3.27
You do the J-mod yourself?
I have a crown vic with stainless works headers and cobra injectors (19psi) after market throttle body and ill be putting in new pistons with longer compression ratios, possibly 9-1 get a better ecu tune in and then hopefully making 500+ hp
Bring back the last model of the cvpi but with the 3/5 EB and jump it from 365 hp to 500 keep the red..
Funny how a crown vic is faster than most supercars in gta online
😂
itsfunny the murader was limited 117 mph but the 100 horsepower weaker crown vic was limited to 130 mph!? should it be the other way around?
ARegularCarGuy LucasThePlaya10 might’ve been cause it was a mercury. My grand marquis is governed at 104 and it’s real sad when it wants to fly and all you hear and feel is deceleration and the throttle cut out :(
Christopher harvey wuts the difference 3.27-3.55
City uses 355 for quick/short burst , state uses 327 for better top end.
This car wasn’t meant to be fast it was meant to last and be a work horse!!
@SubtoPolecat324 definitely bro it’s meant for the long haul that MF tough!
How the hell yours go that fast I have a 2010 and it stops at around 122
wolvieguy ahh good to know👍
You possibly have the 3.55 rearend
Just like my 09💯👍
Remove the governor and you'll do 140 easily
Do you have 3.27s or 3.55s?
Between 130 -140 MPH is about right. Keep in mind this car has 149k on it and you are probably just running 87 octane fuel. The air filter is probably stock and a K&N would help even more.
Wouldn't do shit... It was on the governor
They're limited at 130 due to risk of drive shaft failing.
good poop
I doubt the tires could handle much more either.
The SR71 vid has no comments available.
its a mission for this car to get from 60 to 80. Top speed run... grab the popcorn.
You could do it in a smaller car with a 4 cylinder and tear it all up. They weren't meant to be beaten on like this car was. Also the ride is smooth at that speed almost like you are floating on air.
Better yet start doing J-Turns and crashing through medians and whatnot with a 4 cylinder FWD car and see how it lasts.

Goddamn with 149,000 miles
220 kilometers an hour is very fast for an American car
For a European car on the autobahn, that is routine.
This is Faster then a Camaro
Nice
131 mph ? Thought those were a bit faster? No matter because they sure sound really cool when ya get on it huh !!
I'm not an expert on crown vics, they don't exist where I'm from but I'm guessing the engine would do a lot more and the transmission holds it back. looks like "4th gear" is the overdrive which is why it's then not going to be able to accelerate further on that because of how much torque is lost. If it had a 5 or 6 speed autobox it would probably get another 10 or 20 mph. Most "4 speed" automatics achieve their top speed in third.
@@psions555 I figured that
@@psions555 Yeah, I've got a Suburban with a 4 speed and there's no way it could do anything besides cruise in 4th. At 75 mph, it's turning 2k rpms and has just enough grunt to keep itself there.
Has anyone ever done a run without a limiter?
Holy shit

Hit 135mph in my 09 CVPI definitely could hit 140.
Why does first shift like that I don't think it's supposed to that.
It has the "JMod". It's a common modification done to the 4R70W transmission's valve body to firm up the laggy stock shifts. I did it to my Mark VIII, which has a transmission out of a '98 Grand Marquis, and it now chirps going from first to second gear at WOT. Google "JMod", there is tons of info on it.

What is jmod
Modification that makes transmission shift significantly faster and makes transmission last 100,000 miles longer than it would before.
Got a 08 did 125 in it I think it will do 130-140 easy
If you rock back and forth in seat it will make 140.
do you have 3.27s or 3.55s
My dad has a p-71 and we hit 140mph.
Mine hits 200mph
If these had a 6 speed auto, they’d have better acceleration, but worse top speed, due to the shorter gears
And if my aunt had balls, she would be my uncle.lol, Humm.

Anyone else watching the fuel gauge?
I see
my sts-v 0 to 60 4.5 seconds & its a large sedan but I guess that's super car fast compared to this
Your STS is made to be fast. This is made to be tough. Thats the difference.

Turn off overdrive next time
its better to keep that on no matter how you drive it
I would think that driving it w/overdrive turned off "in 3rd gear" @130-plus mph would damage trans and engine. But I really don't know, I'm just thinking.
