On the subject of going fast....yesterday as I was jumping on the 55n I hit about 120 or so thinking the coast was clear I preceeded to cross three lanes over to the left I order to play with "smoke" a silver Porche Boxter up ahead when all a a sudden a highway patrolman sneeks up behind me through the carpool. Damn! He got on his speaker and told me to get off. opps....well I guess it wasn't so bad cause' he only wrote me 85 in a 65. Much better then ending up in the back of his car. All I can say is be cautious out there and DRIVE IT LIKE IT'S STOLEN! hehehe

does adding a comptech SC add more top end speed for the car?
maybe we should add a DINAN chip and change the rev limiter to 10k RPMS for more top end

Actually as a staff member of the SSC, I can assure you 160+ is possible....come join me next year. As for 170? I'll burn you a copy of the infamous Turbo Dave run. No one seems to know however if he was modded.....:

See you there in May and Sept.

P.S. You won't get to 160+ with the top down....
