So, I've been testing some changes to the way the Viper flies just to see what I can do, but for some reason I can't seem to modify its max velocity. The tbm as a whole is being loaded, because the tech description changed and the rear velocity is definitely working. For some reason, though, the max velocity is at 110 instead of 43 like I set it. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Other than trying to slow down the Viper, I mean.

It might be that you need to override $Max Oclk Speed as well. We don't use energy management in Diaspora, but it's still part of the ship tabling.

Good catch. Since energy management is deactivated and vipers have no shields nor weapon energy, it is likely engine energy is maxed up by default, which correspond to the overclocked speed.

It was indeed the oclk speed
