I have a 99. The gov. is at 136. Also the reason it is pulling such i RPMs aroung 100 is that if you have it floored it wont shift into 4th you have to let up a bit and let it get into 4th then your set to go to your 136.

NICE! I too far from I-20. But I scared to push her over 120 cuz it sounds like the pistons want to shoot right throught the roof also I need my tires blanced and alignment redone. My Black @$$ wuz drifting in the rain LOL!
