My 2003 is good for about 110+. The motor may have had a few rpms left, but the suspensions floats at that speed and I wasn't willing to go any faster.
*If you disable the governor you will be able to go about 125mph, if not you will hit a limit of about 115mph. The suspension is fully capable of 125mph and with aftermarket bolt ons, upgraded computer chip (like SCT), and lowering your height with suspension upgrades you can reach 144mph. I would not attempt that speed without suspension upgrades as your car may not be able to hug the road.
If you turbocharge your car the sky is the limit, as you will be lifted off the ground and into the sky without proper downforce past 155mph.*
Put bigger motor in it
Either on the top or on the side of the transmission.
