Instead of a o shape they were oval and BIG so when the car was running the alternator would wobble and not charge anything because the pully was not spinning all the time as the belt would slip. Battery kept going dead. Replaced the alternator problem fixed

So you rode probably around 5k-5.5k rpms for 85miles? That's really nice for the engine.

A little less than that, but yeah I am rebuilding my motor anyways. Plus I work my ass off, even though my back is all ####ed up and the doctor says I cant work, I dont give a shit. The money I get from the military Disability is ####ing pennies and inflation sucks ####

holy cow, this thread is a damn zombie...I remember reading this thing, ummm can't even remember how long ago

anyways...FYI, going 120mph with blown shocks and cut off coilovers isn't fun
haven't really seen the need for a top speed run since adding tokico suspension

obeserve as Defiant smells blood... watch him move in on his prey... preparing to pounce... and close this thread...

[98talonNT]

On the trip home from school one time, i had her up to 135 on the highway. It was around 12:30 in the afternoon, . Dont worry, i had Valentine One protection on board. Anyways, it was in the high 5k rpm range if i remember correctly.

i guess my t3/t4 helps me out hitting 167. thats what the laptop got any how i did not look down. and i hit 115 in third. i thought all the gs hit that. but hey i only did it b/c my girl was in labor. had police escort the whole way there, althought he was trying to pull me over, i was not letting water to break on my leather seats oh and did you guys know that most police cars only hit 135

 

[Monica96ESi]

ive had her to 133 on the open road
took a while tho....
dont seem too bad tof intake and exhaust

 

[97EagleTalon2nr]

143 on the interstae at about 4 am, it took a while mines auto so it was in OD, then it cut off, went to 170mph, then went back to 0, freaky, i was at about 5400-5500, with header, downpipe, headwork, cold air, and rebuilt

[pr0]

140 easily at the dyno.

I don't know how some of you auto n/t guys claim to hit 130+... I don't see how you could get that fast, especially without a turbo. My car would stop going any faster at about 120 back when I was n/a.

Wow.

 

[stealtheclipse]

i've done 137mph with no cars on the road at 3:15am

 

[ftblplyr46]

110 down a highway... was late for a meeting at work

 

[3L3C7R0]

147 with still more pull. This was in route home from vegas. I averaged 120 the whole way home playin with a Maybach. Those things are unbelievable. They had a packed car and cruising at 120 they could pull away like nothing.

 

[stealtheclipse]

at a 137 my car has a slow pick up

 

[the_eclipse_1]

i was involved in a small police chase once the helicoptor rolled in though i just stopped. but they said i was doing over 140mph and the police interceptor had topped out at 138mph thats the crown victoria model. yeah i've got a really good lawyer. and wow did i need it.

Congratulations! You are either the biggest liar in this thread or the biggest doosh. There is no way in hell that your car with it's (stock) "paperwieght" engine could outrun an Interceptor. You would need a good half hour start on a perfectly straight road with absolutely no traffic at all for you to be able to hit even 130.

It's threads like this one that earn this site the nickname "tooners" in all the DSM circles on the street. What a joke.

AND that will bring a close to this saga.
