Anyone?
I found a 118.9 speed engine on my server. I threw it in my YT-1300 , along with boosters , and droid commands....I pulled a top speed of 1672 ....in my YT-1300
Im wondering what I can pull in the new fighters...
anyway..Im wondering what the highest speed an engine can be made to....

I make 119's on SS. 
Not sure what the new max speed is after the buffage we got from the devs.

Hey Apollyon. fancy seeing you here. 
Based on my experience with the new numbers, I'm guessing the speed on a Mark 5(with a overdriver, of course) is likely to come in around 120 or so. I'm using the best stuff i got(which is very good indeed), and getting 118s and 119s... I'm guessing that last few percent of Experimentation will push it to 120, if I had all 1000s.
An Elite engine(for POBs), is currently a little borked in that you can only get about 50% on them with absolutely the best resources, because the asteroid resource weighting is messed up. However, judging by the speed on those starting at about 100 or so at 0% and 50% experimentation getting me about 115 speed or so, I'm tentatively speculating that the cap on Elite POB engines is going to be around 130.
Currently, my "good" line of mark 5s that I sell(not "uber", but "good"-- IE: my main, affordable product line) hit 115 or so speed, with a YPR of about 64 across the board. These are generally experimented for speed over YPR, so a slower engine would probably be pushing 70 on YPR, but I haven't experimented with that. My customers on Kett tend to want speed more than manuveurability, and I agree with 'em.

Well I got a Lvl IV Engine with a Lvl IV Overdriver up to 98.0 (So, screw my nerfed reward engine...)
Probably going to go back and a make a second more balanced engine though.

I've done 103.9 speed Mark IVs, but Intrepid was blessed with a spawn of 998 CD 995OQ Steel a few months back too. If I could find where I put my 1000 OQ Iron I could probably get near 105speed.

Very nice!
I got up to 116.4 myself. I wish we could manage higher YPR rates though...
