Previously you could not make more than ~$160k in salary at Amazon at any level. Now they are raising the cap.

AIUI, the 160 max only applied below L8.

Nope, L5 here (SDE II) and my base is currently 185. I breached 160 in march of this year. I am confused where the 160 number came in. Maybe Lab126 has different pay bands?

185k cap is for high cost of living area, 160k for the rest. You may be either in California or NYC.
