We have much the same car minus...
3/4inch Throttlebody spacer
DOHC PCM
Cherry Bomb Glasspack
Prothane mount inserts
If you were doing 102 @ 5800 in second then drive must put you around 164 mph / 3,350.
I have only had mine a few days and with less the 60,000 on the clock I can't see it even hitting 100 mph.
I don't know much about these cars yet but clue me in as I have a few Mercs, BMW's,Jags an stray Aston Martin I wanna take on. What's your secret and when does you car start bouncing off the rev limiter?

The engine maxes out at 6,500 RPM at 118mph its doing like 4,500RPM Far from blowing it up
keep oil in it and its happy : )
Yesterday was the first time I kept the car in 2nd gear all the way up to 102mph and it did like 5800 RPM the highestI ever had the engine up to.

Ya know guys I am just dieing to see your cars actually race some of the stuff you claim to be beating. Why not buy or get a friends video camera and record some of this for us?
Now are you people claiming to be doing quarter mile times or the old fly-bys with your hazards flashing on public highways?
