i should have been more specific, naturally aspirated 2.0 liter motor.

obviously a boosted sr20 or mr2 motor with the proper gearing will pull to those speeds, it just takes a certain amount of horsepower with long enough gears.

now show me the number of naturally aspirated production vehicles that are able to pull to 150, much less 175.

I think it is great that some people run fast NA, but running NA is not an excuse to be slow. I feel that alot of honda owners think it is OK to be slow as long as you do it NA.

what do you have done to make your 88 n/a rx7 do 158.

our mid 14 second n/a rx7 only did 145 and that was topped out 8000 rpm in 4th gear, as soon as you put it in 5th gear it starts slowing down again
