I was doing 85-90 mph once on the highway. All I have is a CAI. I want to start working on the engine by summer. Since its stock I never tried to push it to the limit.

You don't need turbo to hit that point. My car will hit it with ease. But there is no real point for me to go that fast at the moment, so I don't care that it won't go faster then that right now. The final drive on my car is nuts, I was only midway through a 4th gear pull and it topped out.

0-60 time right now.... as fast as i can push it to 60 mph... haha

it was quick, but work in progress, hoping to be in high 11s, more than likely going to be in mid 12s however... will be pushing around 400whp hoping buy summer time, if money starts to grow on trees in my neck of the woods, lol

a quarter past freaking slow is what my car is. I'm hoping it'll do better this year. My biggest problem is the ATX but oh well. Last year when i ran my car had a speech problem and was studdering off the start. Now that thats fixed hopefully at least get to 17 secs. If i have to i'll gut the whole damn thing and just leave the drivers seat just so it will hit 17 in the 1/4th mile. Also found out this weekend my car will hit 90 in second gear without touching the rev limiter so i'm wonder how fast it might just go in second gear. First tachs out at 55 then second i know will at least hit 90 and 3 stops me at 120 at half throttle.
