What is my 91 9000s governed at?

Hi,
It's midnight on a Tuesday night, so I decided to see how fast I could pull my 91 9000s (manual) on a stretch of isolated interstate highway. Nice cold balmy air tonight, that seems to improve the way the engine feels. So I get on the highway, redline 3rd and 4th gears...i get up to about 90-95mph. Then shift to fifth and put the pedal all the way to the ground...on level road I could not get it to pull faster than 100mph. THis seemed very odd for a car that was designed to cruise the highways of Europe with speed. On a slight downgrade, I was able to hit 120. That's my Max speed ever in this car. When I was flooring it in 5th...the tach just seemed to sit at 4000rpm...didnt want to pull any higher. The only modifications I have are a Dynomax 2.5" exhaust with center resonater removed and Bosch platinum +4 plugs. I had the need for speed, but came home somewhat dissapointed. Hope u guys can help. Thanks
