Question Top speed for the stock turbo?

any takers on this? last night i hit 165 in the '03. i had 1300rpms left b4 fuel cut so i think i can get 170. BTW this is on stock cams. of course my turbo looked like i pulled it out of Episode 3's lava scene!!! car was still pulling & the gauge was still reading 20PSI. with a 4G64 block, new ECU, & a 25G, 200mph should be around the corner.

you will need a new tranny/ diff gearing, i went 155 @ 6k rpm's in 5th, 170 is def doable w/ enough road.

You can hit 200mph on the stock turbo. the turbo is not what limits your top speed. CD and gearing is more of a limiting factor. ASTROEVO has hit 191mph and I'm almost positive he is still using stock turbo.

do u guys have your speed limiters removed??? Does teh reflash remove it??? it must because I just hit about 155 mph but i have 19" rims with 235/35/19 tires so if you do the math thats a lil over 160mph but stock the cars are governed at 156 mph from what i hear.

TRE also makes a much longer final drive just so you know. Depends on what you use your car for but they would be another option to go with.
