Ok, i am just curious to know how fast you have all driven your Brave Little Toasters. Please tell what mods you have too to help us understand how you achieved your speed. Mine is 110 (also done in a 45 mph speed zone lol) stock, with room to go but a hard left approached fast. lol. |

| 101-102 mph, my xB is stock. it was on daytime and i was, for some odd reason, rushing. my stereo was loud so i didnt hear how loud was the engine. then i notice that i was passing cars really fast, next thing i know, i was traveling 101-102 mph (i cant really tell because the ride was bumpy and it was hard to read the speedo, i need to keep my eyes on the road too). |

| 90 mph, daytime, dry road with some really nice sweepers, bone stock engine. It does get loud around 90, but then again I'm more for the curves than flat-out speed. | |

| 115mph slight down hill, Intake & exhaust. Shut it down since it is supposed to be governed at 109mph. Didn't want to break anything. | |

| I've been up in the triple digits a few times trying to meet a Roll-in time, but I never looked down at the speedo because I was more concerned of what might come from behind me! | |
