How fast have you gone in your N/A Lancer

Okay so I just hit 110 on the freeway and I don't think my car was capable of going any faster. I was just wondering what other people have gotten, and with what mods

it can bury the needle... i had mine just past the very last mark on the speedo. ive got a SRI, headers, downpipe, axleback, grounding kit, synthetic oil, iridium plugs, and i think thats it as far as performance mods.

nah, it was a looooong straight away out in eastern washington at like 3am. it got to 115 pretty quick, but the last 15 mph took forever. i think the wind got too strong. i may have had a very slight tail wind, maybe thats why, but i remember almost creaming my pants when the needle just crossed that last tick mark. i was at around 5500 rpms i think, it was hard to take my eyes off the road.

Mine's auto....short ram intake, cat back exhaust, heavy 17"s.....121mph on a twisty with medium straights.. I love the handling the lancer oz can do, remarkable (but not as good as my old sr powered 240)..Don't think it could have gone any faster......

I got up over 120 on the I-10 last Fall when I was trying to get to Arizona in time. I had an SRI and reflash, but at that speed the gas mileage sucked... guessing around 15 tops!

now the question is how do you know it's exactly 135 when the speedo only goes to about 125? Not that I don't believe it, I wasn't at full throttle when I was at 120, and I hear a CAI has better top end.

I got to 118, but ran out of road so I had to slow down. Thats the fastest I've gotten the car. It would have gone faster if I didnt start slowing down! My mods were SRI, header, downpipe, testpipe, magnaflow axleback, ground kit... uh... magnacor plug wires!

the lancer doesnt have a speed limiter, i guess once you go turbo you keep on going till you run out of gears
