Open interstate let me see 161 on the speedometer; tach showed 6300rpm...
...and this was on a 98-degree morning on reformulated gas and the stock exhaust with what felt like another 5-7mph to go if given enough road.

Those are all calculated values based on wheel+tire size, and gear ratios.
I redlined 5th gear last time I was coming up from San Diego, on I5, and the speedo read just about 153 or so, so I believe the numbers
