accelerating to top speed @ 15 lbs of boost

130mph top speed? I hit that in 4th. I got a 5-spd, 4.10 rear, and 7800rpm rev-limit though. You wouldn't have much fun in the Cannonballs we do around here every few months. We normally cruise at 130.
But it still looks pretty quick. Now you got me curious on how fast mine can get up there.

Thats what I was thinking. Even with a 5 speed and 3.6 gears you would be quite high in revs at 130. I feel uncomfortable even cruising at 80-90 with stock gear. Anything over 5,000rpm worries me. "Cruise" at 130 would be like 6200-6300 rpm. Maybe cruising is a short 30 second burst.
Quick car though OP.

Yes, we stay 130+ almost the whole way. You have to to keep up. Last one it was me and 2 black FC RX7s in a pack. They were blowing fireballs out the exhaust, was pretty cool.
Yes, at least 6200+. I was almost hitting redline in 5th a few times.
Have you been on a Cannonball yet? We had a stock Miata at the last one I went to, and he got left behind, since he could only go 120-something.

I'm fairly certain that my employer, who's entrusted with providing national security, won't appreciate my creative answers to, "why were you involved in an illegal race at triple digit speeds which may or may not have involved utilizing federal resources to apprehend you as a member in the interstate reckless driving event?"
