Any MRs trap higher than 112?

Just trying to see if any MRs have trapped above 112 or hit 11s. With 4th gear maxing out at 111, I don't see how we are going to hit 11s without shifting to 5th. No one on EvoMR has done it, and the highest is 111.64 with an 8k rev limit, so I thought I'd ask here in case there are some MR owners who haven't found EvoMR yet.

I tried shifting to 5th once and still got a 12.34, but it was at 105.9 mph.

My friend Edwin did 3 110mph passes here in Tucson with his Graphite MR, I was running 107 that night however I was having boost problems plus he had same mods plus IC pipes,grounding kit and a much better $500 boost controller.

It is not confirmed if he was in 4th or fifth. I trapped 109.29 in forth however I am very confident that specifically my car could reach 115mph in 4th because Al specifically custom tuned my car to 8000rpm.

I am not capable of doing 115mph with my current mods however I want to try the 112mph mark after I install this:

Works o2 housing
upper/lower ic pipes
headers

MR Scott from Evolutionmr says that 115MPH is not achievable, he says that he also has the 8000rpm limiter. I did the computation of speed on each gear and it is very achievable because a 400-500rpm increase on the rpm is no less than 4-5 mph more top speed on 4th gear.

We're talking about the 6spd, and yes, it's quite different.

I don't know, man, we'll see. No one has hit 112 yet, and I'm sure there are people with 7800-8000rpm limits with more power than I have. Scott knows what he's doing, but says he can't go over 111.64. If 8000 could hit 115, I'm pretty sure he would have done it, but maybe you're right. I was topping out right at 110.71, and I don't think I'd pick up 4-5mph with another 394rpm...

Yeah, I can't wait to find out myself either. You know me, I know you and we know MR Scott(all of us from evolutionmr.net).

One of us 3 are going to either break into 112mph + in 4th , I think is going to be me or MR Scott. You know my deal, I have the reflash for 8000rpm rev limiter but the conditions in where I live are the worst for a track(100 plus degrees, 3100 feet altitude, thin desert air).

MR Scott has the rev limiter to 8000rpm(he says) as well, I think he is running to the max on his set up.

I just order Buschur Upper kit with mini battery, and lower pipes and I will be putting the headers this week plus I am getting the 02 sensor from Works soon.

Whom ever traps 112mph+ on the their EVO MR please post, it maybe be someone with a lot of power, someone that changed the tires to a taller diameter or someone that has decent power and has the rev limiter to 8000rpm , who knows , time will tell.
