Hi all, im an ex evo9 owner, i sold it about a little over a year ago, i loved that car to death, because i needed the cash to get into a business (which it went down the drain -__-) i had to sell my baby. needless to say i desperately need a toy 
here comes my dilemma, i don't visit the track often anymore, i do a lot of highway driving. my evo9 had 360whp with only bolt ons and trapped over 110 all day. yes i love topend! GTR is a bit out of my range right now, M3 is awesome, but i love turbo cars and getting kicked in the pants by the boost! so here i am again looking at the X and STi... how hard is it to achieve 110+ trap speed with only bolt ons on the X? you can flame me all you want, yes straight line performance is more important to me, especially on freeway. thanks for the inputs guys, take me back into the family

Well, a Sean Ivey Ecutek tune alone resulted in a trap speed of 107. And TTP's chip resulted in similar traps. Check out the threads.

Ya 110mph trap speed should be very easy. I traped 103 stock lol. I would say with all the bolt ons and the Ecutek tune and you should be good to go. Right now i am traping at 116 just because my 4th gear isnt longer lol. It's hitting the rev limiter right before the finish line.

5 months ago we did it with just bolt ons still running a 9.8 A/F so it do-able
