what mph do you run out of gear with 4.11s?

Look at the one fourth from the bottom, titled: RPM and MPH Calculation
For my particular combo, I'm good for 132mph in 4th gear @ my 7000rpm shiftpoints. However, everyone's combo will slightly differ

Bowling's Vehicle MPH Calculator
Input Parameters Are the Following:
* Differential Gear = 4.11 to 1
* Transmission Gear = 1.00 to 1
* Tire Diameter (Inches) = 28.00
* Engine RPM = 5800
Computation Results:
# Computed Vehicle MPH is 118
118 in 4th gear at 5800 rpm
use this calculator https://www.camaroz28.com/services/calcs/rpmmph.shtml
Edit: You probably have 26" tires.

thats a nicer calculator.
1994 M6 car with 4.11s stock height (25.66") tires, at 5700 rpm is 106 mph in 4th

Since I don't want to condone this behavior, I'll only speak "hypothetically"...
Assuming I tried to do this, I have had no problem getting up to 140 with my set up. And no, that was not the end of the line either. I was in 5th gear, and had plenty of power to continue. I don't think it will have any substantial decrease in top speed. 155 mph is usually done at redline in 5th gear. Having the higher numerical gear simply allows you to use 6th gear and be in the sweet spot of the rpm band.
So, to answer, at least 140...probably 145...and maybe even 150+.
But since I've never done this I don't know for sure.
FYI - please keep this kind of driving reserved for the track.
