Default how fast have you guys gone in your HMT setups?

I only did 130mph showing my cuz what she could do... But I should have enough power/gear to go 140 or 150... i let off because of my shitty tires. What have you guys taken your homemadeturbo setups to?

135mph while racing a 94'corvette after i pulled 1/2 car on the vette at 120 the driver slowed down...----- we took off while i was in 4th gear and he took off before i got next to him.

135-140+, the kid I was racing said we were going 145 but I'm not sure if I'll trust his speedo on that.

I raced my girlfriends mom before 100+, she was in a Cherokee, me in the CRX :P

Buried the speedo went well over 240, I'd say closer to ~260-270. B16 Turbo.









































BTW thats metric, ---- this imperial ----....

On my old boosted A6, I took it to 7k in 5th several times. So like 130ish
On the B16, Ive had it to an UK cluster indicated 145. Ive rarely had it over 120 though, high speed in the CRX sucks.

I've never been past the stock cutoff at ~120ish. I don't think it was very safe at that speed so it's probably a good thing it had a cutoff.
