How bad will this beat-up the paint job at highway speeds or up to governor kick in which is 142 mph on my car?

There is a cushion between the plate and your spoiler about 1 1/2 INCH. I have in on my Srt 4 at 130 mph. No issue

I don't know because I haven't painted a car. But I remember reading a review that said it did a great job. From my experience using the gun, I would think it would be great. Hope this helps!

I have a 2012 F-150 Ecoboost with an AFE intake on it. I managed to pick up about 2 mpg on the highway with the SCT tune. That's the performance tune, not the economy one. In town, I haven't noticed much but I also have a heavy foot so I'm not surprised.I'd gauge your potential mileage based on your driving style. If you're in town and heavy on the pedal, it might actually get worse or just not improve. If you're doing more highway and you know how Cruise Control works, you will probably pick up a few MPG. A recent trip from Chicago to Michigan had me doing 22mpg, better than my truck has ever gotten before. That was with the cruise locked in at 75 most of the way, running 93 octane and the performance tune. I have a 2012 F-150 Ecoboost with an AFE intake on it.

Not recommended as the heat from under the hood of the engine will affect its performance. Also if it gets hot enough it will leak some sticky goo which will be impossible to get off without damaging your paint.

well it depends on what car you putting it in and what gears your yousing but it about 20-35 mph in the traxxas rustler

I would not risk damage to the clear coat. Besides, you can probably get a cheaper version at an auto supply store, that is made specifically for the degree of polishing you are looking for.

on fuel economy mode no change in mpg (same) i run now 87 performance what a power diference lower end gets a lot of kick ,it realy shows serious power on 93 performance but i dont want to run 93 because of $ per gal so you'll be happy with 87,i got that unit just for towing i tow 6 k boat than it burns less fuel and pulls way better up hill here in new england would highly recommend cortex (only) nothing else ,my last truck dodge ram with flushpeg waist of money no change in power stay away cortex kicks a.. Buy it and enjoy it

I have it in a Polaris Ranger Cew 800 and i have drove it up to 40 mph and it holds up. I have to tell you that when driving at high speeds it bubbles inwards creating a sail effect that will creat a lot of resistace on you UTV. I dont recommend for high speeds even though i will hold up. Hope this helps

I got this for a sterndrive but haven't painted it yet. I would guess that you could sand any paint flakes and clearcoat an oxidized section, it might slow it down until the repaint.

If it is brushed about 25mph on 2s battery if it is brushless 32-35mph on 2s

I don't see it causing harm but being such high miles you may not see the affects as well. I would probably buy it juat ro try to get the last bit of juice out of the motor. I'm not a mechanic just a truck enthusiast.

Haven't ran mine through a car wash yet, but I have driven through about 8" of rain since putting it on. Don't see how the car wash would be worse than a downpour going 60+mph. The stick tape goes around the edges and several in the middle plus you bolt the windshield tie down through the back of it so it is on there pretty good. Just give it at least 24 hours to cure before you wash it per the instructions that came with it.

With the factory batteries and the the regular pinion gear it will go around 35-40 mph. I had a town policeman clock me and my average runwas 37mph.

It runs a good 15 minutes depending how hard your driving and amazing buggy. I upgraded the engine to a .18 and its on fire now, super fast. Great car and very durable.

I'm sure this will last me at least 100k, So far ive driven 3k miles on it and its extremely smooth. I have it on my 06 civic si.

oh yea. this is the best most toxic you can still buy. make sure you use gloves and respirator. and use it out doors. poor in a can or plastic cup and use 3" cheap paint brush. coat liberally . wont take but couple minutes for it to wrinkle the paint . hose off with water. be very carful not to let any get on you or anything near it. this stuff is strong. don't breath vapors. cant believe they still sell it actually. store it in cool place. direct sun light sets this stuff off. after first coat. and rinse , you might need to re coat any minor spots. keep it away from your cars. Its worse than acid. does exactly what its suppose to. used it in autobody all my life. good luck.

Max of 20mph on a flat surface. It is a piece of junk!!! Do not buy without seeing first. I had one and GAVE it away cuz it didn't work after 2 years because it blew up and fried everything! Check out tomos. They are gas powered but much better.
